To solve the problem, we need to analyze the situation of a high-speed electron in space, far from any material objects, and free from electric and magnetic fields. Here’s a step-by-step breakdown of the solution: ### Step 1: Identify the Forces Acting on the Electron In the given scenario, the electron is in space, which means it is not influenced by any external forces. The forces we typically consider are: - Gravitational force (due to mass) - Electric force (due to electric fields) - Magnetic force (due to magnetic fields) ...
