Okay, so in question one, we have this negative charge here, a positive charge here, and a positive charge here, and we need to figure out the direction of the resulting force.
00:11
Well, the negative charge is going to be attracting this positive charge, so it'll have a force this way, and the positive charge will be repelling, so it'll have a force this way.
00:23
And so the horizontal components of those forces, assuming that these are equal in magnitude, the horizontal forces will cancel out and will be left with just a vertical force acting on this charge.
00:38
Question two, we're looking for the magnitude of the charge that would create that electric field.
00:47
And the electric field equation is e equals kq over r square.
00:52
So we just solve that for q, plug in our value for r and e, and for kulom's constant.
01:01
We were told it was 1 .8 newtons per kulom, and the distance was 2 meters.
01:07
So our charge is 8 times 10 to the minus 10 kulombs or 0 .8 nanoculomes.
01:18
For question 3, we know the potential difference is 1 ,000 volts, and the mass of the electron is given to us.
01:26
And we can use the conservation of energy.
01:30
So the potential that it's going to feel will give us a potential energy of k times the potential.
01:37
And that will equal its kinetic energy when it reaches the other side.
01:41
So 1 .5 mv squared.
01:43
We then can just solve 4v by multiplying by 2 and dividing by m and taking the square root.
01:50
And we get a speed of 4 .38 times 10 to 5 meters per second.
01:57
Now, question four, we need to know that amount of energy that it will have in electron volts or joules, and we're told that one electron bolt is 1 .6 times 10 minus 19 joules...
