Take +x to be to the right and +y to be up. A charged ball has a positive charge of +0.08 milli-coulombs is in an electric field of magnitude 0.9 mega- newtons/coulomb which is directed at 30° counter-clockwise from the minus y axis, i.e., down. The mass of the ball is 50 grams. What is the x component of the acceleration of the ball in m/s²? Neglect all other forces. Be careful with your factors of 10. Reminder: milli = 10-3 and mega = 106. You will need to be within 2% so keep 3 significant digits in your answer.
