Explanation / Answer

charge q = -2 C speed v = 1 i + 7 j Magnetic field B = 360 k T Force on particle F = q ( v X B )                               = -2 [ ( 1 * 60 ) (i X k ) + ( 7 * 60 ) ( j X k ) ]                                = -2 [ -60 j + 420 i ]                                = 120 j -840 i                                = -840 i + 120 j
