Question
In an experiment similar to the setup described in the Example, a positively charged particle of mass m is released from rest at the surface of the positive plate. The velocity of the particle at the negative plate is 1.30 ✕ 105 m/s. If the electric field magnitude is 6.00 ✕ 103 N/C, the distance between the two plates is 5 cm, and the charge on the particle is 3e, what is the particle's mass (in kg)?

- Consider an electron, of charge magnitude e = 1.602 × 10-1⁹ C and mass m₂ = 9.11 × 10-31 kg, moving in an electric field with an electric field magnitude E = 4 x 10² N/C, similar to what Thana observed in the simulation. Let the length of the plates be L = 50 cm, and the distance between them be d = 20 cm. Find the maximum speed, v, the electron could be moving if it enters the space halfway between and parallel to the two plates to just barely strike one of the plates. m/s If the field is pointing upward, which plate will Thana conclude the electron strikes at this speed? O The upper plate, because the electron charge magnitude is positive. O The upper plate, because we are only considering the magnitude of the electron charge, and magnitudes are always positive. O The lower plate, because the electron is attracted to the negative plate. O The lower plate, because the electron is negatively charged.arrow_forwardA system of 1358 particles, each of which is either an electron or a proton, has a net charge of -1.002x10-16 C.
