The electrons that produce the picture in a TV set are accelerated by a very large electric force as they pass through a small region in the neck of the picture tube. This region is 1.9 cm in length, and the electrons enter with a speed of 1 × 105 m/s and leave with a speed of 2.5 × 106 m/s.

Is it the average acceleration that you are after?

 

If so, use v2 = u2 + 2as where v = final velocity, u = initial velocity a = acceleration and s = distance

 

Rearrange as:  a = (v2 - u2)/(2s)

 

a=((2.5×106)2(1×105)2)(2×0.019)a=164210526315789.4736842105263158

This is in m/sec2
