An electron is moving along $+x$ direction with a velocity of $6 \times 10^{6}\, ms ^{-1}$. It enters a region of uniform electric field of $300 \,V / cm$ pointing along $+ y$ direction. The magnitude and direction of the magnetic field set up in this region such that the electron keeps moving along the $x$ direction will be

$\overrightarrow{ B }$ must be in $+ z$ axis.

$\overrightarrow{ V }=6 \times 10^{6} \hat{ i }$

$\overrightarrow{ E }=300 \hat{ j } V / cm =3 \times 10^{4} V / m$

$q \vec{ E }+q \vec{ V } \times \vec{ B }=0$

$E = VB$

$B =\frac{ E }{ V }=\frac{3 \times 10^{4}}{6 \times 10^{6}}=5 \times 10^{-3} T$
