Question

An proton is released from rest in a uniform electric field and accelerates to the east at a rate of 3x103 m/s2. What is the magnitude and direction of the electric field?

mass of a proton = 1.67 x1027 kg

charge = 1.6x10-19 C

A 300uC charge is placed at the origin. Calculate the magnitude and direction of the Electric Field created by a point charge at:

A.4m, 10m

B.6m,7m

An electron, initially at rest is placed in an electric field of 2x10-5N/C. The distance between the plates is 1m. 

A. What is the acceleration of the electron?

B. What will be the speed after it leaves the hole?
