A double charged ion is accelerated to an energy of 32.0 keV by the electric field between two parallel conducting plates separated by 2.00 cm. What is the electric field strength between the plates?
You are working on a research project in which you must control the direction of travel of electrons using deflection plates. You have devised the apparatus shown in Figure P22.28. The plates are of length = 0.500 m and are separated by a distance d = 3.00 cm. Electrons are fired at vi = 5.00 106 m/s into a uniform electric field from the left edge of the lower, positive plate, aimed directly at the right edge of the upper, negative plate. Therefore, if there is no electric field between the plates, the electrons will follow the broken line in the figure. With an electric field existing between the plates, the electrons will follow a curved path, bending downward. You need to determine (a) the range of angles over which the electron can leave the apparatus and (b) the electric field required to give the maximum possible deviation angle. Figure P22.28
(a) Find the electric field at x = 5.00 cm in Figure 18.52 (a), given that q = 1.00 C. (b) at what position between 3.00 and 8.00 cm is the total electric field the same as that for ? 2q alone? (c) Can the electric field be zero anywhere between 0.00 and 8.00 cm? (d) At very large positive or negative values of x, the electric field approaches zero in both (a) and (b). In which does it most rapidly approach zero and why? (e) At what position to the light of 11.0 cm is the total electric field zero, other than at infinity?

Derive the expression giving the electron's charge to mass ratio, i.e. e/m to be 2v,Y/CEL). (Recall that Thomson received Nobel Prize for his achievement.) b) Calculate e/m, knowing the following data. E=1.6x10* Newton/Coulomb, L=10 cm, Y=2.9 cm, v=2.19x10* km/s.
