An electron is moving in the xz plane, and at a particular instant the electron has the velocity vector components vx = -5.0 × 105 m/s and vz = 3.0 × 105 m/s. The electron is moving through a region of uniform magnetic field with magnitude 0.80 T oriented in the positive x direction. What is the magnetic force experienced by the electron, in newtons, at the instant in question? 7.5 × 10-14 N in the negative y direction 6.4 × 10-14 N in the positive y direction 3.8 × 10-14 N in the positive y direction 6.4 × 10-14 N in the negative y direction 3.8 × 10-14 N in the negative y direction
