Consider an electron, of charge magnitude e = 1.602 × 10-¹⁹ C and mass me = 9.11 x 10-31 kg, moving in an elect
field with an electric field magnitude E = 7 x 10² N/C, similar to what Thana observed in the simulation. Let the leng
the plates be L = 50 cm, and the distance between them be d = 20 cm. Find the maximum speed, v, the electron co
be moving if it enters the space halfway between and parallel to the two plates to just barely strike one of the plates
7.01e+06 X m/s
If the field is pointing upward, which plate will Thana conclude the electron strikes at this speed?
The lower plate, because the electron is negatively charged.
The lower plate, because the electron is attracted to the negative plate.
The upper plate, because we are only considering the magnitude of the electron charge, and magnitudes are
always positive.
O
The upper plate, because the electron charge magnitude is positive.
A charge Q=7.3×10−4 C is distributed uniformly along a rod of length L, extending from =−28.8/2 cm to =+28.8/2 cm, as shown in the diagram below. A charge q=4.15×10−6 C, and the same sign as Q , is placed at (D,0), where D=55 cm.
Consider the situation as described above and the following statements.
Check each box that corresponds to a true statement. Select "None of the above" if none of them are true.A. The total force on q is generally in the +x direction.B. The charge on a segment of the rod of infinitesimal length dy is given by dQ=(Q/L)dyC. The y-components of the force on q cancel.D. The magnitude of the force on charge q due to the small segment dy is dF=(kqQ/4Lr2)dyE. Given that both charges are positive, the net force on q in the y direction is upwards.F. Given that both charges are positive, the net force on q in the x direction is to the left.G. None of the above.
