A uniform electric field exists in a reg...

A uniform electric field exists in a region between two oppositely charged plates. An electron is released from rest at the surface of the negatively charged plate and strikes the surface of the opposite plate, 3.0 cm away, in a time `1.5 xx 10^(-8) s`. Just as the electron strikes the second plate, what are the its (a) momentum magnitude and (b) kinetic energy ? (c ) What is the magnitude of the electric field `vec(E)` ?
