Question

In two different situations a proton is released between the plates of a charged capacitor (uniform E-field).  In the first situation, it is released with some initial velocity and travels from position 1 to position 2.  In the second situation, it is released with some initial velocity and travels from position 1 to position 3.  In both situations the initial speed is the same.

 

1. The potential energy change () :

A. is equal for both paths

B. is greater from 1 to 2

C. is greater from 1 to 3

D. cannot be determined by given information

 

2. The kinetic energy of the proton () :

A. increases from 1 to 3, but decreases from 1 to 2

B. increases from 1 to 2, but decreases from 1 to 3

C. increases form 1 to 2 and 1 to 3

D. does not change along these paths

 

3. At the end of each trajectory ():

A. the speed of first proton is greater

B. the speed of second proton is greater

C. the protons have same speed 

D. cannot be determined speed by given information
