Complete Question
A parallel plate capacitor creates a uniform electric field of 5 x 10^4 N/C and its plates are separated by 2 x 10^{-3}'m. A proton is placed at rest next to the positive plate and then released and moves toward the negative plate. When the proton arrives at the negative plate, what is its speed?
Answer:
Explanation:
From the question we are told that:
Electric field
Distance
At negative plate
Generally the equation for Velocity is mathematically given by

Answer:
<h2>Magnitude of the second charge isExplanation:
According to columbs law;
F =
F is the attractive or repulsive force between the charges = 12N
q1 and q2 are the charges
let q1 = - 8.0 x 10^-6 C
q2=?
r is the distance between the charges = 0.050m
k is the coulumbs constant =9*10⁹ kg⋅m³⋅s⁻⁴⋅A⁻²
On substituting the given values
12 = 9*10⁹*( - 8.0 x 10^-6)q2/0.050²

Answer:
The BMX lands 5.4 m from the end of the ramp.
Explanation:
Hi there!
The position of the BMX is given by the position vector "r":
r = (x0 + v0 · t · cos α, y0 + v0 · t · sin α + 1/2 · g · t²)
Where:
r = position vector at time t
x0 = initial horizontal position
v0 = initial velocity
α = jumping angle
y0 = initial vertical position
g = acceleration due to gravity (-9.8 m/s² considering the upward direction as positive)
Please, see the attached graphic for a better understanding of the situation. At final time, when the bicycle reaches the ground, the vector position will be "r final" (see figure). The y-component of the vector "r final" is - 2.4 m (placing the origin of the frame of reference at the jumping point). With that information, we can use the equation of the y-component of the vector "r" (see above) to calculate the time of flight. With that time, we can then obtain the x-component (rx in the figure) of the vector "r final". Then:
y = y0 + v0 · t · sin α + 1/2 · g · t²
-2.4 m = 0 m + 5.9 m/s · t · sin 40° - 1/2 · 9.8 m/s² · t²
0 = -4.9 m/s² · t² + 5.9 m/s · t · sin 40° + 2.4 m
Solving the quadratic equation:
t = 1.2 s
Now, we can calculate the x-component of the vector "r final" that is the horizontal distance traveled by the bicycle:
x = x0 + v0 · t · cos α
x = 0 m + 5.9 m/s · 1.2 s · cos 40°
x = 5.4 m
The BMX lands 5.4 m from the end of the ramp.
Have a nice day!
