Potential difference and power — practice question

A particle is at rest in an electric field. The electric field is the only force acting on the particle. For which situation is the electric field strength $5.0 \times 10^{5}\,\text{V m}^{-1}$?

  • Aa force of $1.6 \times 10^{-14}\,\text{N}$ acting on an electron
  • Ba force of $3.2 \times 10^{-14}\,\text{N}$ acting on an alpha-particle
  • Ca force of $8.0 \times 10^{-14}\,\text{N}$ acting on an alpha-particle
  • Da force of $8.0 \times 10^{-14}\,\text{N}$ acting on a proton
