2.8. An electron is launched into a region where there is a constant electric field of strength 2.0 x10 N/C directed in the positive y axis. The electron's initial velocity is 2.1 × 107 m/s in the positive x direction. (a) How much time will it take the particle to move 40 mm in the x direction? (b) During that time, how far will the particle have moved in the У direction?
