Chapter 20, Problem 20PCE
Predict/Calculate A particle with a mass of 3.8 g and a charge of +0.045μC is released from rest at point A in Figure 20-27. (a) In which direction will this charge move? (b) What speed will it have after moving through a distance of 5.0 cm? The electric field has a magnitude of 1200 N/C. (c) Suppose the particle continues moving for another 5.0 cm. Will its increase in speed for the second 5.0 cm be greater than, less than, or equal to its increase in speed in the first 5.0 cm? Explain.

An outfielder throws a baseball to his catcher in an attempt to throw out a runner at home plate. The ball bounces once before reaching the catcher. Assume the angle at which the bounced ball leaves the ground is the same as the angle at which the outfielder threw it as shown in the figure, but that the ball's speed after the bounce is one-half of what it was before the bounce.

(a) Assuming the ball is always thrown with the same initial speed, at what angle & should the fielder throw the ball to make it go the same distance D with one bounce (blue path) as a ball thrown upward at 35.0° with no bounce (green path)?
24
(b) Determine the ratio of the time interval for the one-bounce throw to the flight time for the no-bounce throw.
