11.7 Exercise 15

Avg difficulty 2.5

An electron moving with a velocity v→=(4.0i^+3.0j^+2.0k^)×106m/s\overset{\rightarrow}{v} = \left(4.0 \hat{i} + 3.0 \hat{j} + 2.0 \hat{k}\right) \times 10^{6} \text{m}/\text{s} enters a region where there is a uniform electric field and a uniform magnetic field. The magnetic field is given by B→=(1.0i^−2.0j^+4.0k^)×10−2T.\overset{\rightarrow}{B} = \left(1.0 \hat{i} - 2.0 \hat{j} + 4.0 \hat{k}\right) \times 10^{−2} \text{T} . If the electron travels through a region without being deflected, what is the electric field?
