How close would two stationary electrons have to be positioned so that their total mass is 4 times what it is when the electrons are very far apart?
Initially at rest, an electron is accelerating toward a target that is 20,000V higher potential than where the electron started. What is the speed of the electron just as it reaches the target? Note that the charge of an electron is -1.6x10-19 C and its mass is 9.1x10-31 kg.
After a proton with an initial speed of 1.50 x 10^5 m/s has increased its speed by accelerating through a potential difference of 100 V, what is its final speed? (m^proton = 1.67 x 10^-27 kg)
