If a Cu²⁺ ion that is initially at rest accelerates through a potential difference of 12 V without friction,how much kinetic energy will it gain? (e = 1.60 × 10^-19C)

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

A Cu²⁺ ion has a charge of +2e. When it accelerates through a potential difference of 12 V, the kinetic energy gained is given by the charge multiplied by the potential difference: 2e * 12 V = 24 eV.
