An electron is accelerated inside a parallel plate capacitor. Theelectron leaves the negative plate with a negligible initialvelocity and then after the acceleration it hits the positive platewith a final velocity ß. The distance between the plates is 13.5cm, and the voltage difference is 113 kV.

a) Determine the final velocity ß of the electron using classicalmechanics. (The rest mass of the electron is 9.11×10-31 kg, therest energy of the electron is 511 keV.)

b)What is the final velocity ß of the electron if you userelativistic mechanics?
