An electron is released to accelerate from point 1 to point 2 in a potential region. The electric potentials at these points are V1 = -35 V and V2 = +200 V.
(a) Calculate the change in potential energy of this electron.
(b) What is the work done (by the electric filed) on this electron?
(c) Does the actual path taken by the electron have any effect on your answers above? Why? Explain.
