A particle has a mass of 1.2 × 10-5 kg and a charge of 4 × 10-5 C. It is released from rest at point Y and accelerates until it reaches a point Z. The particle moves on a horizontal straight line and does not rotate. The only forces acting on the particle are the gravitational force and the electrostatic force. If the translational speed of the particle at point Z is 10 m/s what is VY – VZ ?
