Two particles, an electron and a proton, are initially at rest in a uniform electric field of magnitude 564 N/C. If the particles are free to move, what are their speeds (in m/s) after 49.6 ns?

Answer:

For electron

[tex]V=4.9\times 10^6\ m/s[/tex]

For proton

[tex]V=2680.18\ m/s[/tex]

Explanation:

Given that

E= 564 N/C

Charge on electron

[tex]q=-1.6\times 10^{-19}\ C[/tex]

Mass of electron

[tex]m=9.10\times 10^{-34}\ kg[/tex]

Charge on proton

[tex]q=1.6\times 10^{-19}\ C[/tex]

Mass of  proton

[tex]m=1.67\times 10^{-27}\ kg[/tex]

We know that

F = E q

F= m a

For electron:

F=  E q

m a = E q

[tex]9.10\times 10^{-34}\ a=564\times 1.6\times 10^{-19}[/tex]

[tex]a=9.9\times 10^{16}\ m/s^2[/tex]

V= U + a t

[tex]V=9.9\times 10^{16}\times 49.6\times 10^{-9}\ m/s[/tex]

[tex]V=4.9\times 10^6\ m/s[/tex]

For proton:

F=  E q

m a = E q

[tex]1.67\times 10^{-27}\ a=564\times 1.6\times 10^{-19}[/tex]

[tex]a=5.4\times 10^{10}\ m/s^2[/tex]

V= U + a t

[tex]V=5.4\times 10^{10}\times 49.6\times 10^{-9}\ m/s[/tex]

[tex]V=2680.18\ m/s[/tex]
