A Proton Of Mass 1.67*10^-27kg And Charge 1.6*10^-19c Moving At An Initial Speed 3*10^6m/s Against A Uniform Electric Field Has Its Speed Reduced By 50% After Covering A Distance Of 1.0cm In The Field. Determine The Strength Of The Field? help me solve this problem what formula should i use to solve it.
