Problem

A region contains a uniform electric field of magnitude 2.5×103 N ⁣⋅ ⁣C−12.5\times10^{3}\,\text{N}\!\cdot\!\text{C}^{-1} and a uniform magnetic field of magnitude 0.040 T0.040\,\text{T}, with the two fields perpendicular to each other. Calculate the speed that a singly ionized potassium ion (q=+1.6×10−19 Cq=+1.6\times10^{-19}\,\text{C}) must have to move straight through the region without deflection.
