Question

A proton is projected in the positive $x$ direction into a region of a uniform electric field $\mathbf{E}=-6.00 \times 10^{5} \hat{\mathbf{i}} \mathrm{N} / \mathrm{C}$ at $t=0 .$ The proton travels 7.00 $\mathrm{cm}$ before coming to rest. Determine (a) the acceleration of the proton, (b) its initial speed, and (c) the time at which the proton comes to rest.

Step 1

- Electric field, $\mathbf{E} = -6.00 \times 10^5 \hat{\mathbf{i}} \, \text{N/C}$ - Distance traveled by the proton, $d = 7.00 \, \text{cm} = 0.0700 \, \text{m}$ - The proton comes to rest, so final velocity $v_f = 0 \, \text{m/s}$ - Charge of a proton, \(q Show more…
