both the charged particles are same nature so, force acts between them is repulsive force. Due to this both are repel each other and they will move away from each other.

∴ change in electrostatic energy + change in kinetic energy = 0 { from conservation energy theorem}
Final Electrostatic energy - initial electrostatic energy = intial Kinetic energy - speed kinetic energy
⇒ Ke²/(20/100) - Ke²/(10/100) = 0 - ( 1/2 mv²+ 1/2mv²) [ because intially electrons are rest ]
⇒ 9 × 10⁹ × (1.6 × 10⁻¹⁹)²{1/0.2 - 1/0.1 } = -2/2 × 9.1 × 10⁻³¹ v²
⇒9 × 2.56 × 10⁻²⁹ × (-5) = - 9.1 × 10⁻³¹ v²
⇒9 × 2.56 × 5 × 100/9.1 = v²
⇒v = 35.8 m/s
