What is the escape speed (in m/s) of an electron launched from the surface of a 7.42 cm diameter glass sphere that has been charged to 7.04 nC?
u=kqq/r
KE=1/2MV^2
UO=KE
here is what i did
kqq/r = 1/2mv^2
solve for v
v=\sqrt{}2kqq/rm
i used q = 7.42 square
and mass of electron = 9.11*10^-31
and r = 0.0704/2
...but still my answer is wrong
