Answer:

a) a = + 1,758 10¹¹ m / s ,  b)  = √ (2 1,758 10¹¹ E x)

Explanation:

a) A charged particle is an electric field undergoing force given by the expression

          F = qE

where q is the charge of the paticle and E electric field.

In this case we are told that the particle is positron

         q = + 1.6 10⁻¹⁹ C

let's calculate the force

         F = + 1.6 10⁻¹⁹ E

we write the positive sign, to show that the particle accelerates in the same direction of the electric field

let's write Newton's second law to find the acceleration

    F = ma

     a = F / m

     a = + 1.6 10-19 / 9.1 10-31 E

     a = + 1,758 10¹¹ m / s

b) the velocity of the particle starting from rest

       v² = v₀² + 2 a x

       v = √ (2 1,758 10¹¹ E x)

Total amount of energy would remain constant according to law of conservation of energy. i.e., 50 Joules

In short, Your Answer would be Option C) <span>50 Joules because as energy converts from one form to another, it cannot be created or destroyed during the conversion.

Radio waves have a longer wavelength than microwaves. What else is true<br> about radio waves?
Dennis_Churaev [7]

As it was explained in the Introductory Article on the Electromagnetic Spectrum, electromagnetic radiation can be described as a stream of photons, each traveling in a wave-like pattern, carrying energy and moving at the speed of light. In that section, it was pointed out that the only difference between radio waves, visible light and gamma rays is the energy of the photons. Radio waves have photons with the lowest energies. Microwaves have a little more energy than radio waves. Infrared has still more, followed by visible, ultraviolet, X-rays and gamma rays.

That should be able to help answer your question :)
