An electron (m = 9.109 × 10-31kg) is in the presence of a constant electric field E. The electron has a charge of e = 1.602 × 10-19 C and it accelerates at a rate of a = 1300 m/s2. part a: Write an expression for the magnitude of the electric field. Part (b) What is the field, in units of N/C? Part (c) Assuming the electron begins at rest, what is its velocity after 3.5 s? Give your answer in meters per second.

An electron moves with a speed of $2 \times 10^{5} \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}$ along the $+x$ -direction in a magnetic field $\vec{B}=(\hat{i}-4 \hat{j}-3 \vec{k})$ tesla. The magnitude of the force (in newton) experienced by the electron is (the charge on electron $=1.6 \times 10^{-19} \mathrm{C}$ ) (a) $1.18 \times 10^{-13}$ (b) $1.28 \times 10^{-13}$ (c) $1.6 \times 10^{-13}$ (d) $1.72 \times 10^{-13}$
An electron is accelerated by a constant electric field of magnitude 300 $\mathrm{N} / \mathrm{C}$ . (a) Find the acceleration of the electron. (b) Use the equations of motion with constant acceleration to find the electron's speed after $1.00 \times 10^{-4} \mathrm{s}$ , assuming it starts from rest.
