Exercise 5 p. 52
An electron moves from one point to another where the second point has a larger value of the electric potential by 5 volts. If the initial velocity was zero, how fast will the electron be going at the second point?
Electric potential V is a scalar!

Electric field lines
These are fictitious lines we sketch which point in the direction of the electric field.
1) The direction of at any point is tangent to the line of force at that point.
2) The density of lines of force in any region is proportional to the magnitude of in that regionE
