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?

An electron is fired directly toward the center of a large metal plate that has excess negative charge with surface charge density 5.00×10-6 C/ m2. If the initial kinetic energy of the electron is 60 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?

A negatively-charged particle of mass 0.001 kg and charge -1 nC is launched from a particle accelerator at an initial speed of 1 km/s into empty space. The particle flies in a straight line toward a very big plate that is uniformly charged. The particle starts 0.9 m from the plate, but reaches no closer than 0.1 m. What is the surface charge density of the plate in N/m2?

A 2.3 mm -diameter sphere is charged to -4.5 nC . An electron fired directly at the sphere from far away comes to within 0.33 mm of the surface of the target before being reflected. a.What was the electron's initial speed? b.At what distance from the surface of the sphere is the electron's speed half of its initial value? c.What is the acceleration of the electron at its turning point?

In part (a) of the figure an electron is shot directly away from a uniformly charged plastic sheet, at speed vs = 2.20 × 105 m/s. The sheet is nonconducting, flat, and very large. Part (b) of the figure gives the electron's vertical velocity component v versus time t until the return to the launch point. What is the sheet's surface charge density?

A beam of electrons is shot from left to right (+x direction) at a speed of 3 x 105 m/s through a pair of plates that are 3 cm apart and are uniformly charged. They produce a force of 4.8 x 10–17 N upward on the electron (+y direction).   So that our results are unambiguous, vectors pointing from left to right will be called +x, and from bottom to top (along the surface of the paper) will be +y.   Vectors...

1) 2 point charges are separated by a distance of 8 cm. The left charge is 48 mC and the right charge is -16mC. Using a full sheet of paper: draw the 2 charges separated by 8cm, centered in the sheet. (if you are missing a ruler estimate 8cm as ⅓ a paper sheet length). [6] a) Draw field lines to indicate the electric fields for this distribution. [4] b) Draw 3 equipotential surfaces, 1 each, that pass: -Through the...
