    Force exerted by an external electric field

    I forgot to find the force using F=qe then you can plug it into f=ma A = .000035 .000035t = 2.40 - 0 t = .000014 would the acceleration be negative also since the field of strength is opposite the particle

    Force exerted by an external electric field

    Homework Statement A particle of mass 1.20 kg with a charge of +2.30 mC is shot into a region with an electric field of strength 18.0 N/C, having a direction opposite the particle's velocity. If the particle has an initial speed of 2.40 m/s, how long does it take to come to a complete (though...
