Answer

$0.47mT$

Work Step by Step

We know that $v=\sqrt{\frac{2e\Delta V}{m}}$ We plug in the known values to obtain: $v=\sqrt{\frac{2(1.6\times 10^{-19})(550)}{9.11\times 10^{-31}}}$ $v=1.4\times 10^7\frac{m}{s}$ Now we can find the magnitude of the magnetic field as $B=\frac{mv}{er}$ We plug in the known values to obtain: $B=\frac{9.11\times 10^{-31}(1.4\times 10^7)}{(1.6\times 10^{-19})(0.17)}$ $B=4.7\times 10^{-4}T=0.47mT$
