Question: An electron is placed ( starting at rest ) at the vertical negative plate across an electric field from a vertical positive plate. When released,

An electron is placed (starting at rest) at the vertical negative plate across an electric field from a vertical positive plate. When released, the electron moves horizontally across the field and strikes the positive plate with a velocity of 4.00 x 106ms.
a) Determine the potential difference between the two plates.(3 marks)
b) If the distance between the two plates is 3.00 cm , find the electric field strength.(3 marks)
c) Determine the acceleration of the electron within the electric field.(3 marks)
