Expert Solution
Step 1: concept

When a charge particle released in a uniform field. Due to nature of charge either positive/negative it will subject to attractive and repulsive.

Force acting on charged particle is given as:

F = qE

where q is the magnitude of charge particle

E is the electric field.
