An negative point charge Q = - (1.000x10^0) µC is located at the origin. An electron is initially placed at at distance (2.8000x10^-1) m from Q. The initial velocity of the electron is zero. Under the electric force, the electron accelerates and moves to its final location, (9.40x10^-1) m from Q. What is the final kinetic energy of the electron? (assume there is no other forces on the electron) Give your answer in the unit of J with 3 s.f. Note: Your answer is assumed to be reduced to the highest power possible. Your Answer: x10 Answer
A particle with mass m = 4.50 mg and charge Q = 75.0 μC enters a region of space where there exists an electric field between two vertically arranged parallel conducting plates, which carry opposite charges - these charges establish the field between the plates. The particle enters via a hole in the positively charged plate and after a short time leaves the region via a hole in the negatively charged plate as shown in Figure 2. The field between the plates is 3, 150 ÎN C¹. If the plates are 15.0 cm apart, and the particle enters with a speed of 5.70 x 10²m s¹, determine the speed of the particle as it exits the region between the plates. V Figure 2:
