Explanation / Answer

A)

Use law of conservation of energy

Initial kinetic energy of proton = final potential energy of proton in electric field

KEi = Uf

½*mv2= q*V

½*mv2= q*E*x

E = ½*mv2*q*x

Plugging values,

E = [½*1.67*10^-27*(4.10*10^6)^2]/(1.6*10^-19*0.0320)

E = -2.74*10^6 N/C ………..directed opposite to the initial velocity

C)

For on proton = F= q*E

Acceleration of proton = a= (q*E)/m

Plugging values,

a = (1.6*10^-19*2.74*10^6)/(1.67*10^-27)

a = -2.62*10^14 m/s^2 ……….directed opposite to the initial velocity

No use kinematic eqn,

vf=vi+at

plugging values,

0 = 4.10*10^6 - 2.62*10^14*t

t = 1.56*10^-8 s

D)

m=9.1*10^-31 kg

E = ½*mv2*q*x

Plugging values,

E = [½*9.1*10^-31*(4.10*10^6)^2]/(1.6*10^-19*0.0320)

E = 1493.866 N/C ………..directed in the direction of the initial velocity

E)

Since E is directed in the direction of the initial velocity

= angle between E and vi = 0o

= 0o
