Thana reminds Alston that because the electric field is uniform, a constant electric force is exerted on the electron. Alston recognizes that, in this case, they can use the kinematic equations to describe the motion of the charged particle while it is inside the region containing the electric field. He asks Thana to write down an equation they can use to calculate the acceleration of the particle while it is inside the region containing a uniform electric field. Which of These equations is correct?

  a = - e E / m

a = - 1,758 10¹¹ E

Explanation:

For this exercise we can use Newton's second law

        F = m a

where the force is electric

 the forces given by the product of the charge by the electric field

         F = q E

in this case tell us that the charge is the charge of the electron

         q = -e = - 1.6 10⁻¹⁹ C

we substitute

        - e E = m a

          a = - e E / m

we calculate

           a = - 1.6 10⁻¹⁹ / 9.1 10⁻³¹ E

           a = - 1,758 10¹¹ E

The negative sign indicates that the acceleration is in the opposite direction to the electric field
