Ok that makes more sense. When you wrote E, I figured you meant energy, not ε. Tak.

I used your equation (not on my eq'n sheet), a = qE/m, substituted Vq for E, leaving me with Vq˄2 / m. I found acc. to be 3.376 x 10^-6. Plugged that into eq'n v22 = v12 + 2ad, which reduces to v2 = sqr(2ad), and I got a velocity (vx) of 5.93 x 10^-4 m/s which seems really slow to me.

Homework Statement Two parallel plates labelled W (negative) and X (positive) are separated by 5.2 cm. The electric potential between the plates is 150 V. An electron starts from rest at time tw and reaches plate X at time tx. The electron continues through an opening in plate X and reaches...
