E7P9
An electron is fired at a speed vo = 5.6 x 10° m/s and at
an angle 6, = -45° between two parallel conducting plates
that are D = 2.0 mm apart, as in Figure P16.72. If the volt-
age difference between the plates is AV = 100. V, determine
(a) how close, d, the electron will get to the bottom plate and
(b) where the electron will strike the top plate.

Figure P16.72
Two large aluminum plates are separated by a distance of 2.0 cm and are held at a potential difference of 195 V. An electron enters the region between them at a speed of 3.2 × 105 m/s by passing through a small hole in the negative plate and continues moving toward the positive plate. Assume the electric field between the plates is uniform.
1. What is the electron’s speed, in meters per second, when it is 0.1 cm from the negative plate?
2. What is the electron’s speed, in meters per second, when it is 0.5 cm from the negative plate?
3. What is the electron’s speed, in meters per second, when it is 1.0 cm from the negative plate?
4. What is the electron’s speed, in meters per second, when it is 1.5 cm from the negative plate?
5. What is the electron’s speed immediately before it strikes the positive plate?
