Magnitude of force on a Dust Particle

[crazuiee]

Homework Statement

A magnet produces a 0.40 T field between its poles, directed horizontally to the east. A dust particle with charge q = -8.0×10-18 C is moving vertically downwards with a speed of 0.30 cm/s in this field. Whilst it is in the magnetic field, the dust particle is also in an electric field of strength 1.00×10-2 V/m pointing to the north.

(a) What is the magnitude and direction of the magnetic force on the dust particle?
(b) What is the magnitude and direction of the electric force on the dust particle?
(c) What is the magnitude of the net force on the dust particle?

Homework Equations

FB= qvBsinθ
E= FE/q

The Attempt at a Solution

For part a) i got 9.6x10^-21N to the north according to the right hand rule
For part b) i got a magnitude of 4.44x10^-3N but I'm not sure how to find the direction of the force.

What is the direction of the force due to the electric field? Draw a diagram of the two forces, then add them as vectors to find the resultant.
