A particle with a charge of 5.75 µC and a speed of 351 m/s is acted on by both an electric and a magnetic field. The particle moves along the x axis in the positive direction, the magnetic field has a strength of 2.26 T and points in the positive y direction, and the electric field points in the positive z direction with a magnitude of 1.16 × 103 N/C. Find the magnitude of the net force acting on the particle. Answer Units: [10-² N]
