A proton has a mass of about 1.673x10-27kg. If an electron is placed in a region of space within which a constant electric field exists with magnitude 0.514 N/C, how long would it take this proton to travel a distance of 448.54m in units of ms (milliseconds)? Assume the proton does not collide with anything along the way. Hint: You will need to use the kinematic relationships for linear motion that we learned back in PHY 2010. This results of 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 a nearby charge. Note: It is understood that the unit of your answer is in milliseconds, however do not explicitly include units in your answer. Enter only a number. If you do enter a unit, your answer will be counted wrong.

In this example, we will analyze the motion of an electron that is released in an electric field. The terminals of a 100 V battery are connected to two large, parallel, horizontal plates 1.0 cm apart. The resulting charges on the plates produce an electric field E in the region between the plates that is very nearly uniform and has magnitude E = 3.0×104 N/C. Suppose the lower plate has positive charge, so that the electric field is vertically upward, as shown in (Figure 1). (The thin pink arrows represent the electric field.) If an electron is released from rest at the upper plate, what is its speed just before it reaches the lower plate? How much time is required for it to reach the lower plate?
