Answer:
xmax = 9.5cm
Explanation:
In this case, the trajectory described by the electron, when it enters in the region between the parallel plates, is a semi parabolic trajectory.
In order to find the horizontal distance traveled by the electron you first calculate the vertical acceleration of the electron.
You use the Newton second law and the electric force on the electron:
(1)
q: charge of the electron = 1.6*10^-19 C
m: mass of the electron = 9.1*10-31 kg
E: magnitude of the electric field = 4.0*10^2N/C
You solve the equation (1) for a:
Next, you use the following formula for the maximum horizontal distance reached by an object, with semi parabolic motion at a height of d:
(2)
Here, the height d is the distance between the plates d = 2.0cm = 0.02m
vo: initial velocity of the electron = 4.0*10^6m/s
You replace the values of the parameters in the equation (2):
The horizontal distance traveled by the electron is 9.5cm
Answer:
1) 3.66 s
2) 124.44 m
3) 3.12 s
Explanation:
Let's start by first listing down the information in the question.
Red Car : 34 m/s
Blue Car: 28 m/s
Distance between them : 22 m
The difference in speed between the cars is: 34 - 28 = 6 m/s
This means that the red car is catching up to the blue car at a speed of 6 m/s.
1) We can solve this by just dividing the distance by the difference in speed. This becomes:
Thus it takes 3.66 seconds for the red car to catch up to the blue car.
2) We know from (1) that it took 3.66 seconds for the red car to catch up. Since the speed it was travelling at is constant, we only need to multiply it by the time from (1) to get the distance.
This becomes:
Thus the red car travels 124.44 m before catching up to the blue car.
3) If the red car starts to accelerate the moment we see it, the time taken to get to the blue car will be less than before. We can find this in a simple way.
We can use the motion equation :
Here s = 22 m
We can take u as the difference in speed. u = 6 m/s
Acceleration a = (2/3) m/s^2
Substituting the these into the equation we get:
Solving this for the variable 't' using the quadratic formula we get the following two answers:
t1 = 3.12 s
t2 = - 21.12 s
Since t2 is not possible, the answer is t1. This means it takes 3.12 seconds for the red car to catch up to the blue.
