Answer

$a=3.51\times10^{15}\frac{m}{s^2}$

Work Step by Step

We know that $E=\frac{F}{q_e}$ or $F=E.q_e$ We also know that $F=ma$. So the above equation can be written as $ma=E.q_e$ Rearranging the equation, $a=\frac{E.q_e}{m}$ Putting the values and solving, $a=\frac{2\times10^4\times1.6\times10^{-19}}{9.11\times10^{-31}}$ $a=3.51\times10^{15}\frac{m}{s^2}$
