Review Suppose you want to use a small, positively charged ball suspended by a light thread to map out the electric field in the space around a charged source. Describe the reaction of the ball as you place it at the two locations in front of the infinitely large, positively charged sheet shown in Figure P31.2A. Be sure to relate your description to what you know about the sheets electric field.
Use the result from Challenge land the equation for centripetal force from Chapter 2 to compute the speed of the electron as it moves around the proton. The electron’s mass is kg.
In 1911, Ernest Rutherford and his assistants Geiger and Marsden conducted an experiment in which they scattered alpha particles (nuclei of helium atoms) from thin sheets of gold. An alpha particle, having charge +2e and mass 6.64 10-27 kg, is a product of certain radioactive decay's. The results of the experiment led Rutherford to the idea that most of an atoms mass is in a very small nucleus, with electrons in orbit around it. (This is the planetary model of the atom, which well study in Chapter 42.) Assume an alpha particle, initially very far from a stationary gold nucleus, is fired with a velocity of 2.00 107 m/s directly toward the nucleus (charge +79e). What is the smallest distance between the alpha particle and the nucleus before the alpha particle reverses direction? Assume the gold nucleus remains stationary.
Coulomb's force law states that the force between two charged particles is: F=kQqr2. Use this expression to determine the potential energy function.
Cathode ray tubes (CRTs) used in old-style televisions have been replaced by modern LCD and LED screens. Part of the CRT included a set of accelerating plates separated by a distance of about 1.50 cm. If the potential difference across the plates was 25.0 kV, find the magnitude of the electric field in the region between the plates.
(a) Triply charged uranium-235 and uranium-238 ions are being separated in a mass spectrometer. (The much rarer uranium-235 is used as reactor fuel.) The masses of the ions are 3.901025kgand3.9510-25kg.respectively, and they travel at 3.0105m/sina0.250Tfield What is the separation between their paths 1en they hit a target after traversing a semicircle? (b) Discuss whether this distance between their paths seems to be big from uranium-238. enough to be practical in the separation of uranium-235
You are in charge of planning a physics magic show for an open house on your campus. You come up with the following plan for one trick. You will place a sphere on a rough inclined plane of angle , as shown in Figure P28.31, and it will not roll down the incline. Here is the secret that only you know: The sphere is nonconducting, has a mass of 80.0 g, and a radius 20.0 cm. A flat, compact coil of wire with five turns is wrapped tightly around it, with each turn concentric with the sphere. The sphere is placed on the incline so that the coil is parallel to the plane. You establish a uniform magnetic field of 0.350 T vertically upward in the region of the sphere. (a) What current in the coil do you need to make this trick work? (b) You explain the trick to a friend in confidence and he suggests lowering the angle of the plane to make the required current lower. How do you respond? Figure P28.31
Review. In an electron microscope, there is an electron gun that contains two charged metallic plates 2.80 cm apart. An electric force accelerates each electron in the beam from rest to 9.60% of the speed of light over this distance. (a) Determine the kinetic energy of the electron as it leaves the electron gun. Electrons carry this energy to a phosphorescent viewing screen where the microscopes image is formed, making it glow. For an electron passing between the plates in the electron gun, determine (b) the magnitude of the constant electric force acting on the electron, (c) the acceleration of the electron, and (d) the time interval the electron spends between the plates.
Answer each question yes or no. (a) Is it possible for each of three stationary charged particles to exert a force of attraction on the other two? (b) Is it possible for each of three stationary charged particles to repel both of the other particles? (c) Is it possible for each of three current-carrying metal wires to attract the other two wires? (d) Is it possible for each of three current-carrying metal wires to repel the other two wires? André-Marie Ampère’s experiments on electromagnetism are models of logical precision and included observation of the phenomena referred to in this question.

Why does a car always attract dust right after it is polished? (Note that car wax and car tires are insulators.)
A cathode ray tube (CRT) is a device that produces a focused beam of electrons in a vacuum. The electrons strike a phosphor-coated glass screen at the end of the tube, which produces a blight spot of light. The position of the bright spot of light on the screen can be adjusted by deflecting the electrons with electrical fields, magnetic fields, or both. Although the CRT tube was once commonly found in televisions, computer displays, and oscilloscopes, newer appliances use a liquid crystal display (LCD) or plasma screen. You still may come across a CRT in your study of science. Consider a CRT with an electron beam average current of 25.00A . How many electrons strike the screen every minute?
