QUESTION:
An electron is released from rest in a weak electric field given by After the electron has traveled a vertical distance of what is its speed? (Do not neglect the gravitational force on the electron.)
ANSWER:Step 1 of 3
Given data:
The electrical force acting on the electron is,
Here q is the electron charge, and its value is .
The gravitational force on the electron is expressed as,
Here g is the gravitational acceleration, and its value is .
The expression of the net force is expressed as,
