Question: A constant electric field accelerates a proton from rest through a distance of 1 . 5 5 m to a speed of 1 . 6

A constant electric field accelerates a proton from rest through a distance of 1.55m to a speed of 1.65105ms.(The mass and charge of a proton are mp=1.6710-27kg and qp=e=1.6010-19C.)
(a) Find the change in the proton's kinetic energy (in J).
(b) Find the change in the system's electric potential energy (in J).
(c) Calculate the magnitude of the electric field (in N/C).
