Answer:

$E=1.56* 10^(23)\ N/C$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

Electric force applied to the electron,
$F=25000\ N$

Charge on electron,
$q=1.6* 10^(-19)\ C$

We need to find the electric force acting on the electron. The electric field is given by :

E=(F)/(q)

E=(25000)/(1.6* 10^(-19))

$E=1.56* 10^(23)\ N/C$

So, the electric field acting on the electron is
$1.56* 10^(23)\ N/C$ . Hence, this is the required solution
