Consider an electron, of charge magnitude e = 1.602 x 10-19 C and mass m₂ = 9.11 x 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.

As measured by observers in a reference frame S, a particle having charge q moves with velocity v in a magnetic field B and an electric field E. The resulting force on the particle is then measured to be F = q(E + v × B). Another observer moves along with the charged particle and measures its charge to be q also but measures the electric field to be E′. If both observers are to measure the same force, F, show that E′ = E + v × B.

Suppose an electron (q = -e = -1.6 x 10¬9 C,m=9.1 x 10¬3' kg) is accelerated from rest through a potential difference of Vab = +5000 V. Solve for %3D the final speed of the electron. Express numerical answer in two significant figures. The potential energy U is related to the electron charge (-e) and potential Vab is related by the equation: U = Assuming all potential energy U is converted to kinetic energy K, K+U = 0 K = -U 1 Since K mv and using the formula for potential energy above, we arrive at an equation for speed: 2 v = ( 1/2 Plugging in values, the value of the electron's speed is: x 107 m/s V=
