An electron is moving horizontally in a laboratory when a uniform electric field is suddenly turned on. This field points vertic

ally upward. Which of the paths shown will the electron follow, assuming that gravity can be neglected?

It is known that electrons are inclined to move in the opposite direction of an electric field (as the force acts against their movement). Consequently, with the electric field directed upward, it will push the electron downward, resulting in its acceleration in that direction.

Yuliya22 [3333]
To find the time required for one revolution, compute as follows:
0.510 s / 440 revolutions = 51/44000 s
. The frequency in Hertz is the reciprocal of this figure, resulting in a frequency of about 862.75 Hz.
The angular velocity in radians per second
is calculated as (440 rev / 0.510 s) x (2π rad / 1 rev) = 5420.787 rad/s
. The period, which is the inverse of frequency, is approximately equal to 1.16x10^-3 s.

Maru [3345]
According to the second law, heat, often called thermal energy, cannot be entirely turned into work.
The second statement is closely tied to this law.
We can conclude that some energy dissipates while some is used for work.
