Before liquid crystal display LCD computer and television screens, the screens were cathode-ray tube CRTS, in which a bean of electrons was shot towards a Phosphorescent screen at high speed and deflected by electric fields in order to direct the beam to the right place on the screen so that it would form the picture. In a typical television, the speed of the electrons is 1 x10^8 m/s. If the television set is placed so that the CRT beam is horizontal heading east in a place where the earths magnetic field is 5×10^-5 and points horizontally northward what will be the magnetic force on the electron?
