An electron with initial velocity vo = 1.71 x 105 m/s enters a region 1.0 cm long where it is electrically accelerated (see the figure). It emerges with velocity v = 5.84 x 106 m/s. What is its acceleration, assumed constant? (Such a process occurs in conventional television sets.) Number i 1.7x10^5 ! Nonaccelerating Accelerating region region H Units Path of electron Source of high voltage
