Problem

An electron travels at 1.2×106 m ⁣⋅ ⁣s−11.2\times10^{6}\,\text{m}\!\cdot\!\text{s}^{-1} through a region where a uniform magnetic field of magnitude 0.080 T0.080\,\text{T} is perpendicular to an electric field. Determine the magnitude of the electric field required so that the electron continues in a straight, undeflected path.
