An electron is accelerated in an electric field of 1.90 106 V/m.
(a) What is the work done on the electron over 0.590 m?(b) How far must the electron travel for there to be 50.0 GeV of work? (These numbers are similar to the linear accelerators that can be found in many universities.) (km)
A proton moves from a location where V- 86 V to a spot where V= -43 V.
(a) What is the change in the proton's kinetic energy?
(b) If we replace the proton with an electron, what is the change in kinetic energy?
Calculate the speed of an electron (in m/s) after it accelerates from rest through a potential difference of 140 V.
7.02e25
m/s
The speed of the electron v can be found using the kinetic energy equation, K = 1/2(mv^2).
The change in kinetic energy is equal to the work done on the electron, K = W = -U = -qV.
Using those two equations, solve for the speed v in terms of the potential V and constants.
Remember that the mass of an electron is 9.1e-31 kg and its charge is 1.6e-19 C.
