An inclined plane making an angle
with the horizontal is placed in a uniform horizontal electric field of
as shown in the figure. A small block of mass
and charge,
is allowed to slide down from rest from a height,
. If the coefficient of friction is 0.2, then the acceleration of the block is nearly, (Acceleration due to gravity,
)
