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?

A stream of electrons with a linear number density of 3.10 x 1011 electrons/meter are accelerated from rest by a 62.0-V potential difference applied across two parallel plates. The electrons then pass through an aperture in the high voltage plate and into a current collector where the beam current is measured. Note: The mass of an electron is 9.11 x 10-31 kg. (a) What is the magnitude of the electric field between the plates if they are 2.07 m apart? V/m (b) What is the final velocity of each electron? m/s (c) What is the beam current? A
Answer must be in standard form scientific notation with SI units that do not have prefixes except for kg. Provide the answer with the correct amount of significant figures. Thank you so much I greatly appreciate it
