Question
A proton (q=e= 1.602x10-19 C, m=1.67x10-27 kg) goes through a small hole in a negatively charged metal plate with an initial velocity of v 4.59x105 m/s at =11 degrees above the horizontal. The field above the plate has a magnitude of E= 3.42x103 N/C.
a) What is the acceleration of the proton?
b) How much time does it take from going through the small whole til it hits the plate?
c) How far in meters will the proton travel horizontally before it hits the plate?
