A stationary particle of charge q = 2.1 × 10-8 c is placed in a laser beam (an electromagnetic wave) whose intensity is 2.9 × 103 w/m2. determine the maximum magnitude of the (a) electric and (b) magnetic forces exerted on the charge. if the charge is moving at a speed of 3.7 × 104 m/s perpendicular to the magnetic field of the electromagnetic wave, find the maximum magnitudes of the (
