Best Answer

electrons all have the same energy you cant get high energy ones

Nonsense, electrons can be accelerated to any energy you want:

  • In a beam power vacuum tube electrons hit the plate at 100 eV to 200 eV energy.
  • In a black & white TV CRT electrons hit the tube face at about 10 KeV energy.
  • In a color TV CRT electrons hit the tube face at about 50 KeV energy.
  • In a dental x-ray machine electrons hit the tungsten target at over 100 KeV energy.
  • In a Cockroft-Walton accelerator electrons can be accelerated to over 1 MeV energy.
  • In cyclotron accelerators electrons can be accelerated to over 100 MeV energy.
  • In synchrotron accelerators electrons can be accelerated to over 10 GeV energy.
  • In the latest particle accelerators electrons can be accelerated to over 100 TeV energy.

Just build a bigger accelerator!

Electrons with higher energy are located where?

It depends on your definition of high energy. Electrons close to the nucleus have a high positive energy and will require a lot of energy to elevate them to higher orbitals. Electrons far away from the nucleus have the potential to give off a lot of energy falling to inner orbitals.
