What is the escape speed for an electron initially at rest on the surface of a sphere with a radius of 1.0 cm and a uniformly distributed charge of 1.6 * 10-15 C? That is, what initial speed must the electron have in order to reach an infinite distance from the sphere and have zero kinetic energy when it gets there?
What is the escape speed for an electron initially at rest on the surface of a sphere with a radius of 0.9 cm and a uniformly distributed charge of 1.7 × 10-15 C? That is, what initial speed must the electron have in order to reach an infinite distance from the sphere and have zero kinetic energy when it gets there? The charge of an electron is 1.602 × 10-19 C and its mass is 9.109 × 10-31 kg.
A point charge Q1 = +5.6 μC is fixed in space, while a point charge Q2 = +3.9 nC, with mass 7.2 μg, is free to move around nearby.
a)If Q2 is released from rest at a point 0.36 m from Q1, what will be its speed, in meters per second, when it is 0.76 m from Q1?

Calculate: their final speed, and consider whether this depends on the accelerating field being uniform. After this acceleration, the electrons pass through a uniform electric field which is perpendicular to the direction of travel of the electrons as they enter the field. This electric field is produced by applying apotential difference of 10V to two parallel plates which are 0.06m long and 0.2m apart.
