- In this example, we will analyze the motion of an electron that is released in an electric field. The terminals of a 100 V battery are connected to two large, parallel, horizontal plates 1.0 cm apart. The resulting charges on the plates produce an electric field E in the region between the plates that is very nearly uniform and has magnitude E = 3.0×104 N/C. Suppose the lower plate has positive charge, so that the electric field is vertically upward, as shown in (Figure 1). (The thin pink arrows represent the electric field.) If an electron is released from rest at the upper plate, what is its speed just before it reaches the lower plate? How much time is required for it to reach the lower plate? The mass of an electron is mẹ = 9.11 x 10-31 kg.
