Answer:
[tex]\vec{E} = 1.2\times 10^5(-i)[/tex]
Explanation:
Given that
Speed ,v= 2 x 10⁵ m/s ( - y direction)
B= 0.6 T (- z direction)
The resultant force on the proton given as
[tex]\vec{F}=q.\vec{E}+ q.(\vec{v}\times \vec{B})[/tex]
F= m a
For uniform motion acceleration should be zero.
F = 0
[tex]0=q.\vec{E}+ q.(\vec{v}\times \vec{B})[/tex]
[tex]0=\vec{E}+ (\vec{v}\times \vec{B})[/tex]
[tex]0=\vec{E}+2\times 10^5(-j) \times 0.6(-k)[/tex]
[tex]\vec{E} =- 2\times 10^5(-j) \times 0.6(-k)[/tex]
[tex]\vec{E} =-1.2\times 10^5(i)[/tex]
[tex]\vec{E} = 1.2\times 10^5(-i)[/tex]
Electric filed should be apply in the negative x direction.
