When an electron moves 2.5 m in the direction of an electric field, the change in electrical potential energy of the electron is 8x10-17j. what is the strength of the electric field that causes the change in potential energy?

In the field of electromagnetism, when two charged plates that are situated opposite to each other by a certain distance, it forms an energy called the electric field. This energy is due to the difference in potential energy with respect to distance. Thus,

E = V/d

However, the voltage in volts is energy per coulomb. Thus,
V = (8x10-17 J/electron)*(1electron/1.60218x10^-19 C)
V = 499.32 volts

Therefore,

E = 499.32 volts /2.5 m
E = 199.73 N/C

The electric field that caused the change in potential energy is equal to 199.73 Newtons per Coulomb.

The speed was not exceeded so it was slow
