A.) An electron is moving east in a uniform electric field of 1.45 N/C directed to the west. At point A, the velocity of the electron is 4.51Ă—10^5 m/s pointed toward the east. What is the speed of the electron when it reaches point B, which is a distance of 0.350 m east of point A? B.) A proton is moving in the uniform electric field of part A. At point A, the velocity of the proton is 1.85Ă—10^4 m/s, again pointed towards the east. What is the speed of the proton at point B?
(a) An electron is moving east in a uniform electric field of $1.53 \mathrm{~N} / \mathrm{C}$ directed to the west. At point $A,$ the velocity of the electron is $4.45 \times 10^{5} \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}$ toward the east. What is the speed of the electron when it reaches point $B, 0.360 \mathrm{~m}$ east of point $A ?$ (b) A proton is moving in the uniform electric field of part (a). At point $A$, the velocity of the proton is $1.89 \times 10^{4} \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}$, east. What is the speed of the proton at point $B ?$
An electron is moving east in a uniform electric field of 1.50 N/C directed to the west. At point A, the velocity of the electron is 4.55Ă—10^5 m/s pointed toward the east. A) What is the speed of the electron when it reaches point B, which is a distance of 0.370 m east of point A? B) A proton is moving in the uniform electric field of part A. At point A, the velocity of the proton is 1.92Ă—10^4 m/s, again pointed towards the east. What is the speed of the proton at point B?
