Chapter 2, Problem 2.9P

(a)

To determine

What is the velocity of an electron midway between the electrodes and at the instant of striking the plate, if the electrons are emitted from the cathode with zero velocity if a diode vacuum tube consists of a cathode and an anode spaced 5-mm apart, if 300 V are applied across the plates?

(b)

To determine

What is the average force exerted on the anode if the plate current is 20 mA?

Two objects get pushed by the same magnitude of force. One object is 10x more massive. How does the rate of change of momentum for the more massive object compare with the less massive one? Please be able to explain why in terms of a quantitative statement found in the chapter.
A box is dropped on a level conveyor belt that is moving at 4.5 m/s in the +x direction in a shipping facility.  The box/belt friction coefficient is 0.15.  For what duration will the box slide on the belt?  In which direction does the friction force act on the box?  How far will the box have moved horizontally by the time it stops sliding along the belt?
