Physics right hand rule/magnetism question!help quickly!!

[From: ] [author: ] [Date: 12-04-26] [Hit: ]
What is its direction?1.2.3.I found the answer to the first part of the question and it was right but i dont know how to figure out what direction it will be. please help quickly-In a horizontal plane.......
A proton moves at 3.10×106 m/s horizontally
at a right angle to a magnetic field.
What is the strength of the magnetic field
required to exactly balance the weight of the
proton and keep it moving horizontally? The
acceleration due to gravity is 9.81 m/s2 .

What is its direction?
1. In a vertical plane
2. None of these
3. In a horizontal plane

I found the answer to the first part of the question and it was right but i dont know how to figure out what direction it will be. please help quickly

-
In a horizontal plane.

All three things (velocity of particle, field force, magnetic field) have to be mutually perpendicular. If the particle moves horizontally (left/right), and the force is vertical (up/down), then the magnetic field has to be horizontal also (in/out).
