- An electron moving with a velocity v=(4.0i+3.0j+2.0k)106m/s enters a region where there is a uniform electric field and a uniform magnetic field. The magnetic field is given by v=(1.0i2.0j+4.0k)102T.

- Review. Consider a capacitor with vacuum between its large, closely spaced, oppositely charged parallel plates.
