Detailed Solution

Consider the cylindrical surface to be a ring of radius R, there will be an induced emf due to changing magnetic field.

E.dl=dϕdt=AdBdt

E(2πR)=AdBdt=πR2dBdt

E=R2dBdt

Force on the electron, F=Ee

F=eR2dBdt

Acceleration a=eR2mdBdt

As field is increasing and is being directed into the paper current is induced in the ring in anticlock wise direction. Hence there will be force towards left on the electron
