View Solution$A$ particle of charge $2 \ C$ is moving with a velocity of $(3 \hat{i} + 4 \hat{j}) \ ms^{-1}$ in the presence of magnetic and electric fields. If the magnetic field is $(\hat{i} + 2 \hat{j} + 3 \hat{k}) \ T$ and the electric field is $(-2 \hat{k}) \ NC^{-1}$, then the Lorentz force on the particle is: (in $N$)
