magnetism
Hi I'm stuck on this problem I its got to be something simple.Here goes...
A proton moves perpendicularly to a uniform magnetic field B at 1.0x10^7 m/s and exhibits an acceleration of 2.0x10^13m/s^2 in the + x-direction when its velocity is in the + z-direction. Determine the magnitude and direction of the field.
I have been trying to use B= F/qvsin(theta)
theta = 1
q = 1.6x10^-19
and then I have the problem
So any other help would be useful thankx
