[Q3] An electron enters the region of a uniform electric field, E = 300 N/C. The E-field, set up by parallel plate capacitors, is directed vertically upward. The initial velocity of the electron as it enters the field is 2*10° m/s. By the time the electron leaves the E-field, it assumes the trajectory of a projectile. Find the acceleration of the electron while it is in the electric field. O (a) -3.5 m's² O (b) -9.5 m/s? O (e) -5.3 m's2 O (e) -6.5 m's² O (e) -3.9 m/s?
