Question

A proton is sent with velocity in the +z direction into a region where there is a uniform electric field of magnitude in the +y direction. Assume that the magnetic field has no x-component and neglect gravitational effects. What is the direction of the uniform magnetic field in the region, if the proton is to pass through undeflected?

where there is a uniform electric field of magnitude in the +y
direction. Assume that the magnetic field has no x-component and
neglect gravitational effects. What is the direction of the uniform
magnetic field in the region, if the proton is to pass through
undeflected?
