1. An electron moves with a speed of 1.00 x 10^5 m/s through planet Spiro’s magnetic field, which has a value of 55.0 x 10^-6 T at a particular location. When the electron moves westward, the magnetic force acting on it is directed straight upward, and when it moves northward, no magnetic force acts on it.

a. What is the direction of the magnetic field? Explain your reasoning.

b. What is the strength of the magnetic force when the electron moves westward?

c. What would be the strength of the magnetic force on a proton at the same location, but instead moving to the east in this magnetic field with a speed of 1.00 x 105 m/s?

d. If the acceleration of gravity on planet Spiro is equal to 9.80 m/s2, calculate the strength and direction of the gravitational force acting on the proton and compare it with the magnetic force.

PLEASE TYPE OUT ANSWER IF POSSIBLE.
