A charged particle (electron or proton) is introduced at the origin $(x=0, y=0, z=0)$ with a given initial velocity $\overrightarrow{\mathrm{v}}$. A uniform electric field $\overrightarrow{\mathrm{E}}$ and magnetic field $\vec{B}$ are given in columns $1,2$ and $3$ , respectively. The quantities $E_0, B_0$ are positive in magnitude.
