An electron is trapped between two large parallel charged plates of a capacitive system. The plates are separated by a distance

of 1 cm, and there is a vacuum in the region between the plates. The electron is initially found midway between the plates with a kinetic energy of 10 eV and with its velocity directed toward the negative plate. How far towards the negative plate will the electron get if the potential difference between the plates is 100 V? (1 eV = 1.602 x 10-19 J)

Answer:

0.4 cm

Explanation:

We are given that

Kinetic energy=K.E=qV=10 eV

Distance between plates,d=1 cm=1\times 10^{-2} m

1 m=100 cm

Potential difference,V=100 V

1 eV=1.602\times 10^{-19} J

We have to find the distance of electron from negative plate.

Mass of electron=m=9.1\times 10^{-31} kg

Speed,v=\sqrt{\frac{2qV}{m}}

v=\sqrt{\frac{2\times 10\times 1.602\times 10^{-19}}{9.1\times 10^{-31}}}=1.88\times 10^6 m/s

Electric field=E=\frac{V}{d}=\frac{100}{10^{-2}}=10^4 N/C

Charge on electron,q==-1e=-1.6\times 10^{-19} C

Acceleration,a=\frac-{eE}{m}=-\frac{1.6\times 10^{-19}\times 10^4}{9.1\times 10^{-31}}=-1.76\times 10^{15} m/s^2

v^2-u^2=2as

Final velocity,v'=0

Using the formula

-(1.88\times 10^6)^2=2(-1.76\times 10^{15}) s

s=\frac{(1.88\times 10^6)^2}{2\times 1.76\times 10^{15}}=1\times 10^{-3} m=0.1 cm

1 m=100 cm

Mid of separation=\frac{1}{2}=0.5 cm

Distance of electron from negative plate=0.5-0.1=0.4 cm

You throw a glob of putty straight up toward the ceiling, which is 3.60 m above the point where the putty leaves your hand. The
Sliva [168]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

Height of ceiling is h=3.6\ m

Initial speed of Putty u=9.5\ m/s

Speed of Putty just before it strike the ceiling is given by

v^2-u^2=2as

where v=final velocity

u=initial velocity

a=acceleration

s=displacement

v^2-9.5^2=2\times (-9.8)\times 3.6

v^2=19.69

v=4.43\ m/s

time taken by putty to reach the ceiling

v=u+at

4.43=9.5-9.8\times t

t=\frac{5.07}{9.8}

t=0.517\ s

A small 12.00 g plastic ball is suspended by a string in a uniform, horizontal electric field. If the ball is in equilibrium whe
notsponge [240]

Answer:

Q = \frac{0.068}{E}

where E = electric field intensity

Explanation:

As we know that plastic ball is suspended by a string which makes 30 degree angle with the vertical

So here force due to electrostatic force on the charged ball is in horizontal direction along the direction of electric field

while weight of the ball is vertically downwards

so here we have

QE = F_x

mg = F_y

since string makes 30 degree angle with the vertical so we will have

tan\theta = \frac{F_x}{F_y}

tan30 = \frac{QE}{mg}

Q = \frac{mg}{E}tan30

Q = \frac{0.012\times 9.81}{E} tan30

Q = \frac{0.068}{E}

where E = electric field intensity

If a car increases its velocity from zero to 60 m/s in 10 seconds, its acceleration is
andrezito [222]
We know that a=vf_vi/t equals equation "a" . Where a is the acceleration of the body , vf is the final velocity , vi is the initial velocity and t is equal to time . Since vi equals o m/s , vf equals to 60 m/s and t equals 10 s. Put in equation "a". a=60-0/10 =6m/s2

A photon of wavelength 192 nm strikes an aluminum surface along a line perpendicular to the surface and releases a photoelectron
alex41 [277]

Answer:

KE=3.529\times10^{−27}\ J

Explanation:

Given that

Wavelength λ=192 nm

So energy of photon,E

E=\dfrac{hC}{\lambda }

Now by putting the values

h=6.6\times 10^{-34}\ m^2.kg/s

C=3\times 10^{8}\ m/s

E=\dfrac{6.6\times 10^{-34}\times 3\times 10^{8}}{192\times 10^{-9} }

E=1.03\times 10^{-18} J

We know that

Kinetic energy given as

KE=\dfrac{P^2}{2m}

KE=\dfrac{E^2}{2mC^2}

KE=\dfrac{(1.03\times 10^{-18})^2}{2\times 1.67\times 10^{-27}(3\times 10^8)^2}

KE=3.529\times10^{−27}\ J
