A potential difference of 10,000 V exists between two parallel plates which are separated by 10 cm. A proton (+1.6 × 10?19C and m= 1.67 × 10?27kg) is released from the positive plate. (a) What is the kinetic energy of the proton as it reaches the opposite plate? (b) With what velocity does the proton hit the opposite plate?

An electron is released from rest at the negative plate of a parallel plate capacitor and accelerates to the positive plate (see the drawing). The plates are separated by a distance of 1.2 $\mathrm{cm}$ , and the electric field within the capacitor has a magnitude of 2.1 $\times 10^{6} \mathrm{V} / \mathrm{m}$ . What is the kinetic energy of the electron just as it reaches the positive plate?
