a) A proton with kinetic energy of 9.00 x 1006 eV is fired perpendicular to the face of a large plate that has a uniform charge density of +1.65 x 10-06 C/m2. What is the magnitude of the force on the proton?

b) How much work must the electric field do on the proton to bring it to rest? Give only the magnitude of the work done.

c) From what distance should the proton be fired so that it stops right at the surface of the plate?

An electron is fired directly toward the center of a large metal plate that has excess negative charge with surface charge density 6.00×10-6 C/ m2. If the initial kinetic energy of the electron is 130 eV and if the electron is to stop (owing to electronstatic repulsion from the plate) just as it reaches the plate, how far from the plate must it be fired? What is the magnitude of the acceleration?

In proton-beam therapy, a high-energy beam of protons is fired at a tumor. The protons come to rest in the tumor,depositing their kinetic energy and breaking apart the tumor’s DNA, thus killing its cells. The protons gain their energy by being discharged through a type of capacitor with a potential difference of 20MV and have a starting speed of 1.88 x 10^8 m/s. Using what you know of the behavior of a point charge in an electrostatic field and the...
