At time t = 0 a proton is a distance of 0.360 m from a very large insulating sheet of charge and is moving parallel to the sheet with speed 9.70 * 102 m/s. The sheet has uniform surface charge density 2.34 * 10-9 C/m2. What is the speed of the proton at t = 5.00 * 10-8 s?
An electron is shot directly toward the center of a large metal plate that has surface charge density -2.0* 10-6 C/m2. If the initial kinetic energy of the electron is 1.60 *10-17 J and if the electron is to stop (due to electrostatic repulsion from the plate) just as it reaches the plate, how far from the plate must the launch point be?
Two large rectangular sheets of charge of side L = 2.0 m are separated by a distance d = 0.065 m. The left and right sheets have surface charge densities of 13.1 μC/m2 and -2.7 μC/m2, respectively. A proton is released from just above the left plate. What is the speed of the proton, in meters per second, when it passes through the small hole in the right plate? How long does it take, in seconds, for the proton to pass through the right plate after being released?
