SUMMARY
A charged particle with charge q and mass m is projected into a uniform electric field of strength E, moving at an initial velocity of 6 m/s perpendicular to the field. The particle experiences a dissipative force equal to qE, opposing its motion. As the particle turns through 90 degrees, its speed is determined to be 3 m/s, as the relationship between its velocity components indicates that the speed remains constant throughout the motion despite the change in direction.
