The figure shows four directions for the velocity vector of a positively charged particle moving through a uniform electric field (directed out of the page and represented with an encircled dot) and a uniform magnetic field . (a) Rank directions 1, 2, and 3 according to the magnitude of the net force on the particle, greatest first. (b) Of all four directions, which might result in a net force of zero?
