The kinetic energy of the electrons would increase due to their high speeds. However, there would be no change in their potential energy because the potential energy between two electrons is zero.

I apologize for the previous response. In the case of two electrons being fired directly at each other at high speeds, their kinetic energy would increase due to their high speeds. However, there would also be a decrease in their potential energy as they approach each other, since they would experience an electrostatic repulsion. This decrease in potential energy would correspond to an increase in kinetic energy. Therefore, both the kinetic and potential energies of the electrons would change.
