Find the velocity of an electron when its kinetic energy is equal to one electron volt (in 105m/s). Given charge of an electron e = 1.6 x 10-19 and mass of an electron m = 9.1 x 10-31.

Correct Answer: 5.9
When the kinetic energy and one electron volt are equal, we can equate mv2/2 = eV. Put e and m in the equation to get velocity v = 5.9 x 105 m/s.
