Question

An electron enters the region of a uniform electric field as shown, with υi = 3.00 x 106 m/s and E = 200 N/C. The horizontal length of the plates is = 0.100 m.
(A) Find the acceleration of the electron while it is in the electric field.              (B) Assuming the electron enters the field at time t = 0, find the time at which it leaves the field.                                                                                                  (C) Assuming the vertical position of the electron as it enters the field is yi = 0, what is its vertical position when it leaves the field?
