Homework Statement
I'm right now trying to solve a question concerning the direction of an electron in an electric field.
There is the picture I added given and you know that there is a homogeneous electric field.
The blue line represents the movement of an electron (there is no movements up or down) which enters the field in the point A.
The question: In which direction points the electric field?
Homework Equations
It's not about equations.
The Attempt at a Solution

I'm aware of rules like the right-hand-rule, but I'm especially confused since there is an electric (and not magnetic) field - I have never before dealt with electric fields.
I hope you can help me.
