A proton accelerates from rest in a uniform electric field of 640 N/C. At one later moment, its speed is 1.20Mm/s (non relativistic because v is much less than the speed of light). (a) Find the acceleration of the proton. (b) Over what time interval does the proton reach this speed? (c) How far does it move in this time interval? (d) What is its kinetic energy at the end of this interval?
Some forms of cancer can be treated using proton therapy in which proton beams are accelerated to high energies, then directed to
collide into a tumor, killing the malignant cells. Suppose a proton accelerator is 4.80 m long and must accelerate protons from rest to a
speed of 2.00 × 10' m/s. Ignore any relativistic effects and determine the magnitude of the average electric field that could accelerate
these protons. Mass of proton is 1.673 x 10-27 kg and charge of proton is 1.602 × 10-19
