To find the maximum electric force on the electron, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Identify the electric field amplitude The electric field of the light beam is given by the equation: \[ E_y = 300 \sin(\omega t - \frac{x}{c}) \] From this equation, we can see that the maximum electric field (amplitude) \( E_0 \) is: \[ E_0 = 300 \, \text{V/m} \] ...
