As the electron has a negative charge, when under the influence of an electric field, is subject to an electric force, which direction is the opposite to the direction of the electric field.
This is because the electric field has the same direction that the force on a positive test charge at the same point.
As the electric field points vertically downward, the electric force on the electron (a negative charge) points vertically upward.
So, the statement d. is the one that results to be true.
A roller coaster is stopped on a track. When the engineer presses a launch button on the coaster, the coaster moves forward. Explain this change in terms of balanced and unbalanced forces.
