Question: a. An electron (q = -e = -1.602 x 10 -19 C) is accelerated through a potential difference of 2.00 Times 10 5 V over

a. An electron (q = -e = -1.602 x 10-19 C) is accelerated through a potential difference of 2.00 Times 10 5 V over a distance of 20 cm.

b. If the electric field is uniform, what is its magnitude?

c. How much work is done on the electron?

d. What is the force on the electron? If the mass of the electron is 9.1 x 10-31 kg, what is the speed of the electron?

e. How does this compare to the speed of light (c = 3 Times 10 8  m/s)?
