Graduate Distance for electron to stop due to charged plane
I had a bad feeling when none of the equations I had collected would let me substitute V for charge density or E no matter how you slice it. At least I know why now. Thank you. What if I were to measure the E field strength with an electric field meter? Not that I have one, but that can be...- kunkle

What are the challenges of amateur research in Iowa?
Hi all, Working on some vacuum research and ran into a snag. I landed here after exhausting my abilities to solve it myself. Posting my first question on that.- kunkle

Graduate Distance for electron to stop due to charged plane
Ran into a question in my amateur research. Been waaay too long since college physics, and I've exhausted searches. This is the theoretical question: Assume a non-conducting, infinite plane charged to +10 kV. An electron leaves perpendicular to the surface with an energy of 10 keV. How far...- kunkle
