What is the escape speed for an electron initially at rest on the surface of a sphere with a radius of 1.10 cm and a uniformly distributed charge of 1.70 × 10-15 C? That is, what initial speed must the electron have in order to reach an infinite distance from the sphere and have zero kinetic energy when it gets there? The charge of an electron is 1.602 × 10-19 C and its mass is 9.109 × 10-31 kg. Number i Units
An electron is fired at a speed v0 =4.30x106 m/s and at an angle θ0 = −45° between two parallel conducting plates that are D = 5.0 mm apart, as in the figure. If the voltage difference between the plates is ΔV = 118.6 V, determine (a) the magnitude of the electric field between the two plates. (e) where the electron will strike the top plate.

What is the escape speed for an electron initially at rest on the surface of a sphere with a radius of 1.20 cm and a uniformly distributed charge of 1.70 × 10-15 C? That is, what initial speed must the electron have in order to reach an infinite distance from the sphere and have zero kinetic energy when it gets there? The charge of an electron is 1.602 × 10-1⁹ C and its mass is 9.109 × 10-31 kg. Number i Units
A sphere of uniform charge density rho=10^−6 C/m 3 has a small hole drilled along its diameter, forming a tunnel from one end of the sphere to the other. An electron is released at the opening of the tunnel and begins to move, speeding up towards the center of sphere. After it passes the center of the sphere, it begins to slow down until it reaches the other end of the tunnel and stops. The electron then moves back up to the first opening and start the cycle again. It repeats this cycle many times. Find the frequency of this cyclic motion.
In Thomson’s model, an atom is a positively charged spherical material in which negatively charged electrons are embedded like chocolate chips on a ball of cookie dough. Consider such an atom, made up of a uniformly charged sphere with charge +e and radius R and a point charge with mass m and charge −e. a. Locate the position of electrostatic equilibrium for the electron inside the sphere. b. Assume further that the sphere has little or no resistance to the electron’s mo- tion. If the electron is displaced from equilibrium by a distance less than R, show that the resulting motion of the electron would be simple harmonic. c. If the electron was displaced from equilibrium by a distance greater than R, would the electron oscillate? Would its motion be simple harmonic?

A charge of Q₁ = -3.0 μC is fixed in place. From a horizontal distance of S = 0.045m a particle of mass m = 7.2x10-³ kg and charge Q₂ = -8.0 μC is fired with an initial speed of Vo = 65 m/s directly towards the fixed charge Q1. What is the minimum distance between Q₁ and Q₂ before Q₁ flips its direction of motion?
