An electron moving with a speed of $5 \times 10^6 \, m/s$ is shot parallel to an electric field of intensity $1 \times 10^3 \, N/C$. The field causes retardation of the electron's motion. Evaluate the distance traveled by the electron before coming to rest for an instant (mass of $e = 9 \times 10^{-31} \, kg$,charge $q = 1.6 \times 10^{-19} \, C$).

In the following figure,two parallel metallic plates are maintained at different potentials. If an electron is released midway between the plates,it will move:

In a parallel plate air capacitor,a cathode beam comprising $n = 10^6$ electrons is emitted with a velocity $v_0 = 10^8\ m/s$ into the space between the plates. The potential difference between the plates is $\phi = 400\ V$,the separation between the plates is $d = 2\ cm$ and the area of each plate is $l^2 = 100\ cm^2$ (where $l$ is the length of the plate). The deflection of the electron beam is ........... $mm$.

If a particle of mass $10 \ mg$ and charge $2 \ \mu C$ at rest is subjected to a uniform electric field of potential difference $160 \ V$,then the velocity acquired by the particle is (in $ms^{-1}$)
