Problem

An electron moves through a uniform magnetic field given by B=Bxi^+(3Bx)j^\mathbf{B}=B_x\hat{\mathbf{i}}+(3B_x)\hat{\mathbf{j}}. At a particular instant, the electron has velocity v=(2.0i^+4.0j^) m/s\mathbf{v}=(2.0\hat{\mathbf{i}}+4.0\hat{\mathbf{j}})\text{ m/s} and the magnetic force acting on it is (6.4×10−19 N)k^(6.4\times10^{-19}\text{ N})\hat{\mathbf{k}}. Find BxB_x.
