The discussion of the electric field between two parallel conducting plates, in this module states that edge effects are less important if the plates are close together. What does close mean? That is, is the actual plate separation crucial, or is the ratio of plate separation to plate area crucial?
(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 3.901025kg kg and 3.951025kg, respectively, and 1hey travel at 3.00105m/s in a 0.250T field. What is the separation between their paths when they hit a target after traversing a semicircle? (b) Discuss whether this distance between their pains seems to be big enough to be practical in the separation of uranium-235 from uranium-238.

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.

Repeat the calculations of the previous problem for a proton with the same kinetic energy.
A particle in the cyclotron shown in Figure 28.16a gains energy qV from the alternating power supply each time it passes from one dee to the other. The time interval for each full orbit is T=2=2mqB so the particles average rate of increase in energy is 2qVT=q2BVm Notice that this power input is constant in time. On the other hand, the rate of increase in the radius r of its path is not constant. (a) Show that the rate of increase in the radius r of the panicles path is given by drdt=1rVB (b) Describe how the path of the particles in Figure 28.16a is consistent with the result of part (a). (c) At what rate is the radial position of the protons in a cyclotron increasing immediately before the protons leave the cyclotron? Assume the cyclotron has an outer radius of 0.350 m, an accelerating voltage of V = 600 V, and a magnetic field of magnitude 0.800 T. (d) By how much does the radius of the protons path increase during their last full revolution? Figure 28.16 (a) A cyclotron consists of an ion source at P, two does D1 and D2 across which an alternating potential difference is applied, and a uniform magnetic field.

A microscopic spherical dust particle of radius 2m and mass 10g is moving in outer space at a constant speed of 30 cm/sec. A wave of light strikes it from the opposite direction of its motion and gets absorbed. Assuming the particle decelerates uniformly to zero speed in one second, what is the average electric field amplitude in the light?
CASE STUDY In Example 34.6 (page 1111), we imagined equipping 1950DA, an asteroid on a collision course with the Earth, with a solar sail in hopes of ejecting it from the solar system. We found that the enormous size required for the solar sail makes the plan impossible at this time. Of course, there is no need to eject such an object from the solar system: we only need to change the orbit. A much more pressing problem is Apophis, a 300-m asteroid that may be on a collision course with the Earth and is due to come by on April 13, 2029. It is unlikely to hit the Earth on that pass, but it will return again in 2036. If Apophis passes through a 600-m keyhole on its 2029 pass, it is expected to hit the Earth in 2036. causing great damage. There are plans to deflect Apophis when it comes by in 2029. For example, we could hit it with a 10- to 150-kg impactor accelerated by a solar sail. The impactor is launched from the Earth to start orbiting the Sun in the same direction as the Earth and Apophis. The idea is to use a solar sail to accelerate the impactor so that it reverses direction and collides head-on with Apophis at 8090 km/s and thereby keeps Apophis out of the keyhole. Consider the momentum in the impactors orbit (Fig. P34.75) when the solar sail makes an angle of = 60 with the tangent to its orbit. Current solar sails may be about 40 m on a side, but the hope is to construct some that are about 160 m on a side. Estimate the impactors tangential acceleration when it is about 1 AU from the Sun. Keep in mind that the sail is neither a perfect absorber nor a perfect reflector, and a heavier impactor would presumably be equipped with a larger sail. Dont be surprised by what may seem like a very small acceleration. FIGURE P34.75
