Question
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.
The thin arrows represent
the uniform electric field.

In this example, suppose a proton (mp = 1.67 × 10-27 kg) is released from rest at the positive plate. What is its speed just before it reaches the negative
plate?
