The velocity of the electron after moving a distance of 1cm in the electric field is 5.95×10⁶m.
What is Electric field?
Electric field is the physical field that surrounds a charge.
How to find final velocity of the electron when it moves some distance in a certain electric field?
- From Newton's second law, the acceleration the electron will be
a=F/m=qE/m
- where q= charge of electron
E= electric field
m= mass of electron
=(−1.60×10^−19C)(3×10³N/C)/(9.11×10^-31kg)
=10¹⁵×0.526m/s²
- The kinematics equation v²=v0²+2a(Δx)
- where v=final velocity of the electron
v0=initial velocity of the electron =5×10⁶m/s
a=acceleration of the electron =10¹⁵×0.526m/s²
Δx=distance moved by the electron in east direction =1cm=10^-2m
- Now v^2=(5×10⁶)²+2×10¹⁵×0.526×10^-2
=25×10¹²+10.52×10¹²
=35.52×10¹²
- Now velocity of electron=5.95×10⁶m/s.
Thus , we can conclude that the velocity of the electron after moving a distance of 1cm in the electric field is 5.95×10⁶m.
