The electric field near the Earth's surface has a magnitude of E
and points inward towards the ground. Ignoring gravity, what is the
acceleration experienced by an electron (charge -e, mass 
)? NOTE: Can you explain to me how you got your answer. Thanks!
Homework Answers
Electron experiences the electric force (FE) , in the opposite direction of the electric field (E) as E directs from positive to negative.
and acceleration is defined as Force per unit mass. FE (magnitude) is charge times Electric Field
Here, the E is in the downward direction, so FE will act in the upward direction.
and acceleration a= FE / mass of e-
a= eE/me in upward direction (ANSWER IS PART A)
