Textbook Question
Chapter 37, Problem 37.67P
DATA You are a scientist studying small aerosol particles that are contained in a vacuum chamber. The particles carry a net charge, and you use a uniform electric field to exert a constant force of 8.00 × 10−14 N on one of them. That particle moves in the direction of the exerted force. Your instruments measure the acceleration of the particle as a function of its speed ʋ. The table gives the results of your measurements for this particular particle.
(a) Graph your data so that the data points are well fit by a straight line. Use the slope of this line to calculate the mass m of the particle. (b) What magnitude of acceleration does the exerted force produce if the speed of the particle is 100 m/s?

Att = 0, a particle is traveling parallel to very large
insulating plate at a 0.360 m distance with a speed
of 980 m/s . Consider that the insulating plate has
uniform surface charge density 2.34. × 10–ºC/m²
A tourist is walking at a speed of 2.3 m/s along a 7.0-km path that follows an old canal. If the speed of light in a vacuum were 3.8 m/s,
how long (in km) would the path be, according to the tourist?
