Answer:
233.33°F
Explanation:
(385K - 273.15) * 9/5 + 32 = 233.33°F
The potential difference between the plates of a capacitor is 234 V. Midway between the plates, a proton and an electron are released. The electron is released from rest. The proton is projected perpendicularly toward the negative plate with an initial speed. The proton strikes the negative plate at the same instant the electron strikes the positive plate. Ignore the attraction between the two particles, and find the initial speed of the proton.
I have tried looking at the cramster.com solution manual and do not like the way it is explained. Simply put, I cannot follow what is going on and I am looking for someone who can explain it in plain man's terms and help me understand and get the correct answer. I am willing to give MAX karma points to anyone who can help me through this. Thank you kindly.
Answer:
The speed of proton is 2.1 x 10^5 m/s .
Explanation:
potential difference, V = 234 V
let the initial speed of the proton is v.
The kinetic energy of proton is
KE = q V
[tex]0.5 mv^2 = e V \\\\0.5\times 1.67\times 10^{-27} v^2 = 1.6\times 10^{-19} \times 234\\\\v=2.1\times 10^5 m/s[/tex]
