Ion acceleration in an electric field
I am building a Fusor to do some research on grid sizing, but I have a question that I can't seem to find an answer to anywhere. In an electric field, what is the acceleration of an ion? I know that an ion in a 30Kv field accelerates to 30KeV, but at what rate does it accelerate?

F=ma
F=qE
a=F/m
a=qE/m
