Suppose an electron (q = -e = -1.6 x 10¬9 C,m=9.1 x 10¬3' kg) is accelerated from rest through a potential difference of Vab = +5000 V. Solve for %3D the final speed of the electron. Express numerical answer in two significant figures. The potential energy U is related to the electron charge (-e) and potential Vab is related by the equation: U = Assuming all potential energy U is converted to kinetic energy K, K+U = 0 K = -U 1 Since K mv and using the formula for potential energy above, we arrive at an equation for speed: 2 v = ( 1/2 Plugging in values, the value of the electron's speed is: x 107 m/s V=
A negatively charged particle of mass 8.0 x 10-13 kg is traveling rightward between two plates separated by a distance d = 50 cm, as shown below. The particle is launched with a speed of 1.0 x 104 m/s at the left plate, and strikes the right plate at a speed of 5.0 x 10³ m/s. The left plate is at electric potential V₁ = +1.0 V, while the right plate is at electric potential V₂ = -5.0 V. Assume the electric field between the plates is uniform, and ignore the effect of gravity. 2 (a) (b) V₁ d 7 V₂ Does the potential energy of the particle increase or decrease as it moves from the left plate to the right plate? Is the electric field between the plates directed rightward or leftward? Justify your answers briefly. Show clearly that the electric field between the plates has magnitude 12 V/m (or 12 N/C). Then find the charge of the particle (with correct magnitude and sign). (Note: You may obtain the charge using either energy considerations or a "force and kinematics" approach.
