An ion experiences a magnetic force of 6.2 × 10−16 N when moving in the positive x direction but no magnetic force when moving in the positive y direction. What is the magnitude of the magnetic force exerted on the ion when it moves in the x-y plane along the line x = y? Assume that the ion’s speed is the same in all cases.
