A to Z Formula

What is the formula for Kinetic energy of an electron?

The kinetic energy of an object is the energy that it attains due to its motion. It is the work needed to accelerate a body of a given mass from rest to its stated velocity.

The formula for Kinetic energy of an electron is given as,

K.E. = e2 / 8π ε0 r

ε0 = permittivity of free space

e = Charge on an electron (1.6 x 10–19 C)

r = radius of the orbit of an electron
