a proton is fired with a speed of 200,000m/s from the midpoint of the capacitor toward the positive plate. This speed is insuffi

cient to reach the positive plate. What is the proton's speed as it collides with the negative plate

Answer: The proton speed = 3 × 10^5m/s

Explanation: The electric P.E change the proton if It can reach the positive plate.

I have attached an image of the diagram showing the nature of this motion

Answer:

Protons speed = 2.96 x 10^(5) m/s

Explanation:

A) At closest point of approach to the positive plate, the proton came to rest momentarily.

Thus;

Loss in Kinetic Energy = Gain in Electric potential energy

Hence;

(1/2)(mv^(2)) = eΔV

So, ΔV = (mv^(2))/(2e)

Mass of proton = 1.673 × 10-27 kilograms

Proton elementary charge(e) = 1.6 x 10^(-19) coulumbs

And from the question v = 200,000 m/s

So, ΔV = [1.673 × 10^(-27) x 200000^(2)] / (2 x 1.6 x 10^(-19)) = 209 V

This is less than 250V which is half of the charge at the positive plate shown in the diagram.

Therefore, the speed is insufficient to reach the positive plate from P to Q.

B) Gain in KE = qΔV

Thus; 1/2mvf^(2) - 1/2mvi^(2) = eΔV

Where, vf is final velocity and vi is initial velocity.

So simplifying, we get;

vf^(2) - vi^(2) = (2eΔV)/m

So, vf = √[(2eΔV)/m) + (vi^(2))

= √[(2 x 1.6 x 10^(-19) x 250)/(1.673 × 10^(-27)) + (200,000^(2))

= 2.96 x 10^(5) m/s

6000 kg train moving 5 m/sec to east collides with 5000 kg train moving 3 m/sec to west. What is their velocity
Svetlanka [38]

The final velocity is 1.37 m/s east

Explanation:

We can solve this problem by using the law of conservation of momentum: in fact, in absence of external forces, the total momentum of the two trains must be conserved before and after the collision.

So we can write:

p_i = p_f\\m_1 u_1 + m_2 u_2 = (m_1+m_2)v

where:

m_1 = 6000 kg is the mass of the first train

u_1 = 5 m/s is the initial velocity of the first train (we take east as positive direction)

m_2 = 5000 kg is the mass of the second train

u_2 = -3 m/s is the initial velocity of the second train

v is the final combined velocity of the two trains

Re-arranging the equation and substituting the values, we find:

v=\frac{m_1 u_1 + m_2 u_2}{m_1+m_2}=\frac{(6000)(5)+(5000)(-3)}{6000+5000}=1.37 m/s

And the positive sign indicates their final direction is east.
