At a certain point on Earth's surface in the southern hemisphere, the magnetic field has a magnitude of 4.9 10-5 T and points upward and toward the north at an angle of 56° above the horizontal. A cosmic ray muon with the same charge as an electron and a mass of 1.9 10-28 kg is moving directly down toward Earth's surface with a speed of 4.2 107 m/s. What is the magnitude and direction of the force on the muon?
