Question

n electron is accelerated from rest through a potential difference δv. if the electron reaches a speed of 9.60 × 106 m/s, what is the potential difference? be sure to include the correct sign.

Answer 1

The potential difference δv is approximately equal to 1.53 kV and it is negative, indicating that the electron is accelerated towards a region of lower potential.
