Question

Two insulating plates are both uniformly charged in such a way that the potential difference between them is ${V_2} - {V_1} = 20\,V.$ (i.e., plate $2$ is at a higher potential). The plates are separated by $d=0.1$ $m$ and can be treated as infinitely large. An electron is released from rest on the inner surface of plate $1.$ What is its speed when it hits plate $2$?
$\left( {e = 1.6 \times {{10}^{ - 19}}\,C,\,\,{m_e} = 9.11 \times {{10}^{ - 31}}\,kg} \right)$

$2.65 \times {10^6}\,m/s$
$7.02 \times {10^{12}}\,m/s$
$1.87 \times {10^6}\,m/s$
$32 \times {10^{ - 19}}\,m/s$
