An electron gun `G` emits electons of energy `2 keV` travelling in the positive x-direction. The electons are required to hit the spot `S` where `GS=0.1 m`, and the line `GS` makes an angle of `60^@` with the x-axis as shown in figure. A uniform magnetic field `B` parallel to `GS` exists in the region outside the electron gun.

find the minimum value of `B` needed to make the electrons hit `S`.
