Cosmic ray proton strikes earth near equator by vertical

Reference no: EM13659556

A cosmic ray proton strikes the earth near the equator by a vertical velocity of 2.8*10^7 m/s. suppose that the horizontal component of the earth's magnetic field at the equator is 30 uT. Compute the ratio of the magnetic force on the proton to the gravitational force on it.
