An electron is moving with an initial speed of 3.2 x 105 m/s toward a proton that is stationary. If the electron is very very far away from the proton initially, what distance from the proton does the electron have twice the speed it did originally?
In a cathode-ray tube, electrons are projected horizontally at 8.5 x 106 m/s and travel a horizontal distance of 4.3 cm across the tube. Find the vertical distance the electrons fall under the influence of gravity during their flight. Give your answer in femtometers (but do not type the units in the answer blank).
In an ordinary television set, the electron beam consists of electrons shot horizontally at the television screen with a speed of about 5 x 107 m/s. How far does a typical electron fall as it moves approximately 40 cm from the electron gun to the screen?
