Question

A small object with mass m, charge q, and initial speed v0 = 4.00×10³ m/s is projected into a uniform electric field between two parallel metal plates of length 26.0 cm (Figure 1). The electric field between the plates is directed downward and has magnitude E = 600 N/C. Assume that the field is zero outside the region between the plates. The separation between the plates is large enough for the object to pass between the plates without hitting the lower plate. After passing through the field region, the object is deflected downward a vertical distance d = 1.35 cm from its original direction of motion and reaches a collecting plate that is 56.0 cm from the edge of the parallel plates. Ignore gravity and air resistance. Part A Calculate the object's charge-to-mass ratio, q/m.

A small object with mass $m,$ charge $q,$ and initial speed $v_{0}=5.00 \times 10^{3} \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}$ is projected into a uniform electric field between two parallel metal plates of length $26.0 \mathrm{~cm}$ (Fig. $\mathrm{P} 21.78$ ). The electric field between the plates is directed downward and has magnitude $E=800 \mathrm{~N} / \mathrm{C}$. Assume that the field is zero outside the region between the plates. The separation between the plates is large enough for the object to pass between the plates without hitting the lower plate. After passing through the field region, the object is deflected downward a vertical distance $d=1.25 \mathrm{~cm}$ from its original direction of motion and reaches a collecting plate that is $56.0 \mathrm{~cm}$ from the edge of the parallel plates. Ignore gravity and air resistance. Calculate the object's charge-to-mass ratio, $q / m$.

00:01 Hello and welcome to this video's illusion of numerate.
00:03 So here we are given a small object with mass m and charge q and initial speed v0.
00:09 That is equal to 5 times of 10 to the power of 3 meters per second is projected into a uniform electric field between two parallel metal plates of length 26 centimeters.
00:22 So length of each plate is 26 centimeters.
00:27 Kind of like this.
00:29 The electric field between the plates is directed downwards and is having a magnitude d which is equal to 800 newton per coulomb.
00:39 Right.
00:42 Kind of like this.
00:43 This is v0 and the electric fields are directed down.
00:49 Right.
00:49 This is 26 centimeters and assume that the field is zero outside the region between the plates.
00:59 The separation between the plates is large enough for this object to pass between the plates without hitting the lower plate.
01:04 After passing through the field region the object is deflected downwards by a vertical distance d which is 1 .25 centimeters.
01:15 So this is the straight and here you have got deflected by a distance of 1 .25 centimeters.
01:27 And the collecting plate is 56 centimeters from the edge of the parallel plate.
01:31 So this distance is 56 centimeters.
01:37 Now you have to calculate the objects charge to mass ratio.
01:44 Now what you can do is you can first calculate the deflection in the electric field.
01:49 Right.
01:49 So here you have got let's say d1 that is equal to using the expression ut plus half at square.
01:56 So this is the expression of the deflection.
01:58 Let's say this is d1.
02:00 I'm taking it the first initial time.
02:02 Now this d1 will be equal to l the length of this plate over the speed.
02:11 Right.
02:11 U or v naught.
02:15 And also you have got the acceleration to be equal to the net force over the mass.
02:20 Right.
02:21 Now the net force is you know that it's charge times the electric field over the mass.
02:26 Right.
02:26 So there's a value of acceleration.
02:28 So using these two conditions you can plug in and find the value d1.
02:34 So d1 it's equal to this u will be u y rather which is zero because there is no initial vertically rounded velocity.
02:48 Right.
02:49 Plus half the acceleration is qe over the mass and t1 square is l by v naught whole squared.
02:57 Right.
02:57 And this will be around qe l square by 2m v naught squared.
03:12 Right.
03:12 So this is d1 you have got.
03:16 Now next you have to consider calculate the time it will take outside the magnetic field.
03:21 Right.
03:21 So this is t2 which is equal to outside length which is 56 centimeters is l.
03:30 Let's say capital l i take.
03:32 Right.
03:33 So this l by the velocity v naught itself.
03:37 Right.
03:38 Because this is the vertical horizontal velocity with which it will cover the entire distance.
03:43 Right.
03:44 And you have to consider calculate the vertical motion also...
