This exercise is from Gravitation by Misner, Thorne, Wheeler. I am concerned here with the second part of it, marked with green:

My answer for the electric field is (ej, u). For the magnetic field, (ek, ei), where i-j-k are in the cyclical order of 1-2-3. Is it correct?

For the reference, here is a components representation of the Faraday tensor in a Lorentz frame:
