A oxygen atom (m = 2.65 x 10-26 kg) which has lost a single electron is moving at an initial speed vo=3,166.1 m/s and enters a region with a constant electric field E = 60 N/C. The ion enters the field at an angle of 71.9 degrees relative to the surface as shown. The ion will be repelled by the field and will eventually lose its horizontal velocity. How far horizontally in cm will the ion reach before being stopped?
