An electron (mass 9.11 X 10-31 kg) leaves one end of a TV

An electron (mass 9.11 X 10-31 kg) leaves one end of a TV picture tube with zero initial speed and travels in a straight line to the accelerating grid, which is 1.80 cm away. It reaches the grid with a speed of 3.00 × 106 m/s. If the accelerating force is constant, compute (a) the acceleration; (b) the time to reach the grid; and (c) the net force, in newtons. Ignore the gravitational force on the electron.
