An electron is travelling at 100.0 km/s parallel to a long straight horizontal conductor a distance of 3.00 cm from the conductor.

Find the strength of the external electric field that will prevent the electron from deviating from its original path. Express your answer in V/m
Which of these are FALSE: 1. The reason why both conventional current and electric flow are acceptable in terms of determining the path of the current is because of regardless of which the current is moving, its value is still the same. 2. At high temperature, the atoms of conductors vibrate rapidly thus resulting to a greater resistance. 3. Resistance is compared to friction in terms of movement. 4. Adding electric current is independent to its orientation 5. In gold, glass, silver, and rubber. Glass has the least resistance 6. Resistance does not need in determining current density of a conductor 7. All materials have the same electric resistance
