Answer:

Downwards

Explanation:

The electric force will go down because as electrons are NEGATIVE, they'll move to the positive plate, causing them to move downwards.

Hope this helps :)

Have a nice day !!!!

The direction of the electric force should be downward.

The following informatoin should be considered:

  • Since  electron is negatively charged and lower side of the field is positive because field is directed from positive to negative.
  • Therefore negatively charged electron moves to positive side of field
  • So, it should be downward direction.
