An electron is initially moving at 1.4 x 107 m/s. It moves 3.5 m in the direction of a uniform electric field of magnitude 120 N/C. What is the kinetic energy of the electron at the end of the motion

K.E = 15.57 x 10⁻¹⁷ J

Explanation:

First, we find the acceleration of the electron by using the formula of electric field:

E = F/q

F = Eq

but, from Newton's 2nd Law:

F = ma

Comparing both equations, we get:

ma = Eq

a = Eq/m

where,

E = electric field intensity = 120 N/C

q = charge of electron = 1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹ C

m = Mass of electron = 9.1 x 10⁻³¹ kg

Therefore,

a = (120 N/C)(1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹ C)/(9.1 x 10⁻³¹ kg)

a = 2.11 x 10¹³ m/s²

Now, we need to find the final velocity of the electron. Using 3rd equation of motion:

2as = Vf² - Vi²

where,

Vf = Final Velocity = ?

Vi = Initial Velocity = 1.4 x 10⁷ m/s

s = distance = 3.5 m

Therefore,

(2)(2.11 x 10¹³ m/s²)(3.5 m) = Vf² - (1.4 x 10⁷)²

Vf = √(1.477 x 10¹⁴ m²/s² + 1.96 x 10¹⁴ m²/s²)

Vf = 1.85 x 10⁷ m/s

Now, we find the kinetic energy of electron at the end of the motion:

K.E = (0.5)(m)(Vf)²

K.E = (0.5)(9.1 x 10⁻³¹ kg)(1.85 x 10⁷ m/s)²

K.E = 15.57 x 10⁻¹⁷ J

the independent variable, or the one that is intentionally manipulated is the speed.

speed

ratio of distance traveled to time interval

net force

vector sum of forces on object

object

source of diverging light rays either luminous or illuminated
