A +5 microcoulomb charge moving to the right at a speed of 3 x 10^4 m/s enters a region wherein a uniform upward electric field of 500,000 N/C and a downward magnetic field of 20 T are present. Determine the magnitude and direction of the net force acting on this charge due to these fields. Ignore gravitational field. Express your answer in nearest whole number. (Example: 10 N, 30 degrees below +z-axis)

A doubly charged (so twice the charge of a proton) helium atom whose mass is6.6 x 10-27 kg is accelerated from rest, up to full speed by a voltage of 2100 V. What willbe its radius of curvature if it moves in a plane perpendicular to a uniform 0.340 T field atfull speed?
Why is the following situation impossible? Two identical dust particles of mass 1 μg arefloating in empty space, far from any external sources of large gravitational or electricfields, and at rest with respect to each other. Both particles carry electric charges that areidentical in magnitude and sign. The gravitational and electric forces between the particleshappen to have the same magnitude, so each particle experiences zero net force and thedistance between the particles remains constant.
