Answer

$v=22\frac{km}{s}$

Work Step by Step

In equilibrium state, $K.E=P.E$ That is, $\frac{1}{2}mv^2=K\frac{qQ}{r}$ $v=\sqrt\frac{2KqQ}{rm}$ We plug in the known values in the formula to obtain: $v=\sqrt\frac{2\times 9\times 10^9\times1.6\times 10^{-19}\times 1.6\times 10^{-15}}{0.01\times 9.109\times 10^{-31}}$ $v=22492$ $v=22\frac{km}{s}$
