Given y-z plane. An electron having velocity  v= −2.2×10^8 j m/s enters a uniform magnetic field of 3i T. It is deflected downward on the y-z plane and leaves the magnetic field with a velocity v= 2.2×10^8 j m/s. Find the magnetic force in vector form acting on the electron when it has travelled one-quarter of its entire path in the magnetic field. Note: The entire path is half of the circumference.
