An electron with kinetic energy K is traveling along the
positive x-axis, which is along the axis of a cathode-ray tube,
as shown in the figure. There is an electric field
E = 15.0 × 104 N/C pointed in the positive y-direction
between the deflection plates, which are 0.0600 m long and
are separated by 0.0200 m.
Determine the minimum kinetic energy Kmin the electron can
have and still avoid colliding with one of the plates.

- A less than youthful 80.6 kg physics professor decides to run the 26.2 mile (42.195 km) Los Angeles Marathon. During his months of training, he realizes that one important component in running a successful marathon is carbo-loading, the consumption of a sufficient quantity of carbohydrates prior to the race that the body can store as glycogen to burn during the race. The typical energy requirement for runners is 1 kcal/km per kilogram of body weight, and each mole of oxygen intake allows for the release of 120 kcal of energy by oxidizing (burning) glycogen. (a) If the professor finishes the marathon in 5:15:00 h, what is the professor's oxygen intake rate, in liters per minute, during the race if he metabolizes all of the carbo-loaded glycogen during the race and the ambient temperature is 21.5°C? 2.02 × Read the problem statement again carefully.

Lastly, a 27.5 kg dog steps onto the piston, and the air in the cylinder again compresses, as show in figure (c). After reaching equilibrium, the air inside is again at 13.5°C, and the height of the piston decreases a distance Ah as shown.

The two joined wires are connected to fixed points a total distance of 4.00000 m apart. When both wires are at a temperature of 43.0°C, each wire has an unstretched length of 2.00000 m, and the tension in each is negligible. The first wire is made of steel and extends from x = -2.00000 m to x = 0, and the second is made of brass and extends from x = 0 to x = 2.00000 m. The temperature of both wires is then lowered to 18.0°C, and the wires stay joined together as they cool. The steel wire is composed of an alloy that has an average coefficient of linear expansion of 1.10 x 10-5 (°C) -1 and a Young's modulus of 2.00 x 1011 N/m².
