Physics
An alpha particle is launched from the negative plate of a parallel plate capacitor. The speed of the alpha particle is initially 5.7 x 104 m/s at 60 degrees above the plate. The capacitor generates an electric field of 7537.6 N/C. The curved path of the alpha particle almost (but not quite) reaches the top positive plate. What is the distance between the capacitor plates? Express your answer in cm.
(An alpha particle consists of two protons and two neutrons. The mass of proton is equal to the mass of a neutron = 1.67 x 10-27 kg)
In figure 2, an upwardly oriented uniform electric field E⃗ of a magnitude of 2.0 × 103 N / C has been established between two horizontal plates by charging the lower plate positively and the upper plate negatively. The plates have a length L = 10.0 cm, and they are at a distance of d = 2.0 cm. An electron is sent between the plates from the left end of the lower plate. The initial velocity ⃗v0 of the electron forms an angle θ = 45◦ with the lower plate, and its magnitude is 6.0 × 106 m / s (a) Will the electron touch one of the plates? (b) If so, determine which one. Then find how far horizontally from the left end the electron will strike.
A proton is projected horizontally midway between two parallel plates that are separated by 0.47 cm. The uniform electric field has
magnitude 6.0 × 105 N/C between the plates. If the plates are 5.6 cm long, find the minimum speed of the proton if it just misses the
lower plate as it emerges from the field. The gravitational force on the proton can be neglected.
