Answer:

Answer:

6.68 x 10^16 m/s^2

Explanation:

Electric field, E = 3.8 x 10^5 N/C

charge of electron, q = 1.6 x 10^-19 C

mass of electron, m = 9.1 x 10^-31 kg

Let a be the acceleration of the electron.

The force due to electric field on electron is

F = q E

where q be the charge of electron and E be the electric field

F = 1.6 x 10^-19 x 3.8 x 10^5

F = 6.08 x 10^-14 N

According to Newton's second law

Force  = mass x acceleration

6.08 x 10^-14 = 9.1 x 10^-31 x a

a = 6.68 x 10^16 m/s^2

Hey, what is antimatter
jenyasd209 [6]
A antimatter is particle physics, antimatter is a material composed of the antiparticle "partners" to the corresponding particles of ordinary matter. A particle and its antiparticle have the same mass as one another, but opposite electric charge and other quantum numbers.

Why are there two fluoride ions in magnesium fluoride but only one fluoride ion in lithium fluoride
postnew [5]
This would be more of a chemistry question. Remember magnesium has a charge of 2+, and would need to hand off its two extra electrons. Fluorine can only take one electron at a time, so there needs to be two fluorines to take one magnesium's 2 electrons. 

With lithium, it has a +1 charge, so it has one extra electron, which it can hand off to just 1 fluorine atom. 

Another way of looking at this is: Mg^{2+} + 2F^{-} = MgF2  (the charges must balance out to zero)

Li^{+} + F^{-} = LiF (the charges balance out to zero)
