1. An electron initially moves in a horizontal direction and has a kinetic energy of 2 × 103 eV (electron- volts) when it enters to the electric field È as shown in the figure. It passes through a uniform electric field between two oppositely charged vertical plates to a field-free region with a velocity 2.8 × 10’m/s. The plates are separated from each other by a distance of 0.04 meter. Gravity is negligible. Calculate electric field and find its direction:
