A particle with charge -5 nC is moving in a uniform magnetic field B = -(1.2 T)k. The magnetic force on the particle is measured to be F = -(3.6*10^(-7) N)i + (7.6*10^-7)j. Calculate the x and y components of the particle's velocity.
F = q(V X B)
(force equals charge multiplied by the cross product of V and B)
Calculate the scalar product (dot product) v*F
vx*Fx + vy*Fy + vz*Fz?
What is the angle between v and F (in degrees)?
F = qvB sin theta
theta = arcsin [F/(qvB)]?
