The electric field between two parallel plates is uniform, with magnitude 628 N/C. A proton is held stationary at the positive p

late, and an electron is held stationary at the negative plate. The plate separation is 4.22 cm. At the same moment, both particles are released.
A. Calculate the distance (in cm) from the positive plate at which the two pass each other.

Answer:

Answer is explained in the explanation section below.

Explanation:

Solution:

Data Given:

Electric Field between two parallel plates = 628 N/C

Separation = 4.22 cm

a) In this part, we are asked to calculate the distance from positive plate at which the electron and proton pass each other.

Solution:

First of all:

Force on proton due to the Electric field between the plates is:

F_{p} = q_{p}E

and, we know that, F = ma

So,

m_{p}a = q_{p}E

a = \frac{q_{p}.E }{m_{p} }      Equation 1

So,

The distance covered by the electron is:

S = ut + 1/2at^{2}

Here, u = 0.

S = 1/2at^{2}

Put equation 1 into the above equation:

S = 1/2 x (\frac{q_{p}.E }{m_{p} }  )t^{2}      Equation 2

So,  

Similarly, the distance covered by electron will be:

(D-S) = 1/2 x (\frac{q_{e}.E }{m_{e} }  )t^{2}    Equation 3

We know that the charge of electron is equal to the charge of proton so,

q_{p} = q_{e} = q

By dividing the equation 2 by equation 3, we get:

\frac{S}{D-S} = \frac{m_{e} }{m_{p} }

Solve the above equation for S,

Sm_{p} = m_{e}D - m_{e}S

So,

S = \frac{m_{e}.D }{(m_{e} + m_{p})  }

Plugging in the values,

As we know the mass of electron is 9.1 x 10^{-31} and the mass of proton is 1.67 x 10^{-27}

S = \frac{9.1 . 10^{-31} . 4.22 }{(9.1 . 10^{-31} + 1.67 . 10^{-27}  }

S = 0.002298 cm (Distance from the positive plate at which the two pass each other)

b) In this part, we to calculate distance for Sodium ion and chloride ion as above.

So,

we already have the equation, we need to put the values in it.

So,

S = \frac{m_{Cl}.D }{(m_{Cl} + m_{Na})  }

As we know the mass of chlorine is 35.5 and of sodium is 23

S = \frac{35.5 . 4.22}{(35.5 + 23)}

S = 2.56 cm

Which will have a larger momentum when moving at the same speed: a 2,000-kg truck or a 1,000-kg sedan
Alina [70]

Answer:

2000 kg

Explanation:

Given that Which will have a larger momentum when moving at the same speed: a 2,000-kg truck or a 1,000-kg sedan

According to the definition of momentum, momentum is the product of mass and velocity.

That is,

Momentum = mass × velocity

Since velocity or speed is the same, then, the one of higher mass will have a greater momentum.

Therefore, the 2000 kg truck will have the greater momentum.

Which statement is true regarding a distance vs. time graph? (1 point)
Nadusha1986 [10]

The statement that is true regarding a distance vs. time graph is option A: The graph should show distance on the vertical axis.

<h3>Where is the plot of distance?</h3>

How far an object has come in a certain amount of time is displayed on a distance-time graph. Time is represented on the X-axis and Distance is plotted on the Y-axis (left) (bottom).

On a distance-time graph, an object's motion is indicated by a sloping line. The slope or gradient of the line in a distance-time graph is equal to the object's speed. The object is travelling more quickly the steeper the line is (and the bigger the gradient).

Note that the distance-time graph shows the relationship between distance and time by plotting distance on the y-axis and time on the x-axis.
