An electron is acted upon by a force of 7.00×10−15 N due to an electric field. Find the acceleration this force produces in each case:

Question

The electron's speed is 1.00 km/s . a=??m/s2

The electron's speed is 2.50×108 m/s and the force is parallel to the velocity.
a=???m/s2

Answer 1

F=ma
a= force/masselelectron

the acceleration acceleration is not dependent on the speed.
