Answer

$v_f=65.3\frac{Km}{s}$

Work Step by Step

$dK.E=-dU$ $\frac{1}{2}mv_f^2-\frac{1}{2}mv_i^2=-q(V_2-V_1)$ This simplifies to: $v_f=\sqrt{v_i^2-(\frac{2q}{m})(V_2-V_1)}$ We plug in the known values to obtain: $v_f=\sqrt{(90\times 10^3)^2-(\frac{2\times 1.6\times 10^{-19}}{1.67\times 10^{-27}}) (-50-(-70))}=65.3\frac{Km}{s}$
