Consider a region with a uniform electric field E directed to the right and a uniform Magnetic field directed upwards. (In this problem there is no gravity.) a) A positively

charged ball enters the region, and travels through it in a straight line. Which way is the ball moving for this to be possible? (3 marks) b) As the ball moves through the region, a gust of wind slows the ball down, how does the ball move now.(2 marks) (c) Describe how it is possible to create a uniform electric field, and give a real life example. (2 marks) (d) A negatively charged ball is now sent through the region moving straight into the page with the same speed that the positive ball had initially. What happens to the electron? (3 marks)
