An electron moving parallel to a uniform electric field increases its speed from 2.0 ×× 1077 m/sm/s to 4.0 ×× 1077 m/sm/s over a distance of 1.3 cmcm.
what is the electric field strength?

262 kN/C

Explanation:

If the electrons is moving parallel, thus it has a retiline movement, and because the velocity is varing, it's a retiline variated movement. Thus, the acceleration can be calculated by:

v² = v0² + 2aΔS

Where v0 is the initial velocity (2.0x10⁷ m/s), v is the final velocity (4.0x10⁷ m/s), and ΔS is the distance (1.3 cm = 0.013 m), so:

(4.0x10⁷)² = (2.0x10⁷)² + 2*a*0.013

16x10¹⁴ = 4x10¹⁴ + 0.026a

0.026a = 12x10¹⁴

a = 4.61x10¹⁶ m/s²

The electric force due to the electric field (E) is:

F = Eq

Where q is the charge of the electron (-1.602x10⁻¹⁹C). By Newton's second law:

F = m*a

Where m is the mass, so:

E*q = m*a

The mass of one electrons is 9.1x10⁻³¹ kg, thus, the module of electric field strenght (without the minus signal of the electron charge) is:

E*(1.602x10⁻¹⁹) = 9.1x10⁻³¹ * 4.61x10¹⁶

E = 261,866.42 N/C

E = 262 kN/C
