An electron and a proton are in any electric field E=5x10^2 V/m. What is their speed 1.0 cm after being released?

F=Eq= 5x10^2 x 1.6x10^-19 = 8x10^-17 N Kinetic energy theory: deltaEc= Fxd =1/2mv^2 thus v= squareroot(2xFxd/m) v(proton) = squareroot(2x8x10^-17x1x10^-2/9.1x10^-31)=1.3x 10^6 m/s v(electron) = squareroot(2x...
