  1. Remember the Lorentz force equation:

    F=q (vXB)

    in this case, the cross product is just,

    F=q v B,

    q=1.602 x 10^-19C

    B=0.33T

    v=6.16 x 10^5 m/s (I guess this is your velocity, it's hard to tell)

    F=(1.602 x 10^-19C)*(0.33T)*(6.16 x 10^5 m/s)

    F=3.26 × 10^-14 N

    Hope this helps =)
