Answer:
the charge of the particle is 2.47 x 10⁻¹⁹ C
Explanation:
Given;
mass of the particle, m = 6.64 x 10⁻²⁷ kg
velocity of the particle, v = 8.7 x 10⁵ m/s
strength of the magnetic field, B = 1.3 T
radius of the circle, r = 18 mm = 1.8 x 10⁻³ m
The magnetic force experienced by the charge is calculated as;
F = ma = qvB
where;
q is the charge of the particle
a is the acceleration of the charge in the circular path
Therefore, the charge of the particle is 2.47 x 10⁻¹⁹ C
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
