Answer:
The electron starts from rest (near enough) so the kinetic energy gained is given by ½mv 2 where m is its mass and v is its speed. For an electron gun with a voltage between its cathode and anode of V = 100V the electron will have a speed of about v = 6 × 10 6 m/s

Answer:
The individual electron velocity in a metal wire is typically millions of kilometers per hour. In contrast, the drift velocity is typically only a few meters per hour while the signal velocity is a hundred million to a trillion kilometers per hour.
