Answer:

[tex]\triangle U=-e (V_2-V_1)[/tex]

[tex]\triangle U=130eV[/tex]

[tex]V_2=\sqrt{ \frac{2}{me}(\frac{1}{2}meV_1^2+e(V_2-V_1)}[/tex]

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The potential at point 1, [tex]V_1 = 24V[/tex]

The potential at point 2, [tex]V_2 = 154V[/tex]

a)Generally work done by proton is given as

 [tex]w=-\triangle U[/tex]

 [tex]e\triangle V=-\triangle U[/tex]

 [tex]\triangle U=-e (V_2-V_1)[/tex]  

Generally the Equation for the change of electric potential energy AU of the proton, in terms of the symbols given and the charge of the proton e is mathematically given as

 [tex]\triangle U=-e (V_2-V_1)[/tex]

b)Generally the electric potential energy in electron volts (eV). is mathematically given as

 [tex]\triangle U=-e (154-24)V[/tex]

 [tex]|\triangle U| =|-e (130)V|[/tex]

 [tex]\triangle U=130eV[/tex]

c) Generally according to the law of conservation of energy

[tex](K.E+P.E)_1=(K.E+P.E)_2[/tex]

[tex]\frac{1}{2}meV_1^2+eV_1 =\frac{1}{2}mev_2^2+eV_2[/tex]

[tex]V_2^2=\frac{2}{me}(\frac{1}{2}meV_1^2+e(V_2-V_1)[/tex]

[tex]V_2=\sqrt{ \frac{2}{me}(\frac{1}{2}meV_1^2+e(V_2-V_1)}[/tex]
