A cosmic ray electron moves at 7.3×106 m/s perpendicular to the Earth's magnetic field at an altitude where field strength is 1.5110−5 T. What is the radius (in meters) of the circular path the electron follows? The charge of an electron is 1.6×10−19C and its mass is 9.11×10−31 m. Your answer should be a number with two decimal places, do not include the unit. Question 3 10 pts A velocity selector in a mass spectrometer uses an electric field of 4.4×103 V/m. What magnetic field strength (in Tesla) is needed to select a speed of 4.7×106 m/s ? Your answer should be a number with three decimal places, do not include the unit:
