My bad I forgot to write part of the question. The distance between the two plates was 0.25 m.

So I think I got an answer. I did 0.1/0.25 and got .4 and did 3.5x10^3 * 0.4 = 1.4x10^3. If it is moving towards the negative plate (gaining potential energy) then the answer is C (I think).

So then the negative charge is migrating to the negative plate? Gaining electrical potential energy?

I would assume that because it was a positive charge that it would move towards the negative plate since opposites attract. Edit: Oops obviously I was feeling dyslexic I meant because it was a negative charge it would go to the positive plate.

Alright before I ask the question I'm going to be pretty blunt, I'm not very good at physics at all. I have a great interest and desire to learn physics but it just isn't very easy for me so explanations are going to have to be pretty detailed and even then I still might not get them...
