Review. From a large distance away, a particle of mass m1, and positive charge q1 is fired at speed in the positive x direction straight toward a second particle, originally stationary but free to move, with mass m2, and positive charge q2. Both particles are constrained to move only along the x axis. (a) At the instant of closest approach, both particles will be moving at the same velocity. Find this velocity, (b) Find the distance of closest approach. After the interaction, the particles will move far apart again.

An election enters a region between two large parallel plates made of aluminum separated by a distance of 2.0 cm and kept at a potential difference of 200 V.
