-27 kg. If an electron is placed in a region
A proton has a mass of about 1.67 x 10^-27 kg. If an electron is placed in a region of space within which a constant electric field exists with magnitude 4.156 N/C, how long would it take this proton to travel a distance of 649.72m in units of ms (milliseconds)? Assume the proton does not collide with anything along the way. Hint: you will need to use the kinematic relationship for linear motion. This results from this problem show you that small charges like protons, and electrons too, move great distances in a short amount of time under very small external electric fields--if those charges are in a vacuum- otherwise, they quickly strike anearby charge.
Note: put answer in milliseconds
