$1m*0.5m=0.5m^2\\
g=10\frac{m}{s^2}\\
300kg*10\frac{m}{s^2}=3000N\\
3000N--0.5m^2\\
\ \ x\ \ --\ 1\\
x=6000Pa=60kPa$

Answer:

2.1406 × $10^6$ m/sec

Explanation:

we know that energy is always conserved

so from the law of energy conservation

$qV=\frac{1}{2}mv^2$

here V is the potential difference

we know that mass of proton = 1.67× $10^{-27}$ kg

we have given speed =50000m/sec

so potential difference $V=\frac{\frac{1}{2}\times 1.67\times 10^{-27}50000^2}{1.6\times 10^{-19}}=13.045$

now mass of electron =9.11× $10^{-31}$

so for electron

$\frac{1}{2}\times 9.11\times 10^{-31}v^2=1.6\times 10^{-19}\times 13.045=2.1406\times 10^6 m/sec$

so the velocity of electron will be 2.1406× $10^6$ m/sec
