Example In Canada, the Earth has B = 0.5 mT, pointing north, 70.0° below the horizontal. a) Find the magnetic force on an oxygen ion (O) moving due east at 250 m/s b) Compare the |FB| to |FE| due to Earth's fair- weather electric field (150 V/m downward).
Three charged particles are located at the corners of an equilateral triangle as shown in the figure below (let q = 2.20 µC, and L = 0.810 m). Calculate the total electric force on the 7.00-µC charge.   What is the magnitude , what is the direction?
(a) Calculate the number of electrons in a small, electrically neutral silver pin that has a mass of 9.0 g. Silver has 47 electrons per atom, and its molar mass is 107.87 g/mol.   (b) Imagine adding electrons to the pin until the negative charge has the very large value 2.00 mC. How many electrons are added for every 109 electrons already present?
