6. Two electrons are fixed 2.00 cm apart. Another electron is shot from infinity and comes to rest
midway between the two. What was its initial speed?
Answer: 318 m/s
Four parallel plates are connected in a vacuum as shown in the picture. An electron with initial velocity,
1.02 x 10°m/s in the hole of plate X is accelerated to the right. Gravity is negligible once the electron
passes through holes at W and Y. However due to the high air viscosity, the electrons loses 1.6 × 10-17) of
1V =
energy between the plate W to plate Y. It then passes through the hole at Y and slows down as it heads to plate
Z. Calculate the distance, in centimetres, from plate Z to the point at which the electron changes direction.
