Question

The electric field at a point in space is E? =( 100 i^+ 100 j^)N/C. PLEASE ANSWER ALL OF THE FOLLOWING:

1.What is the x-component of the electric force on a proton at this point?

2. What is the y-component of the electric force on a proton at this point?

3. What is the x-component of the electric force on an electron at this point?

4. What is the y-component of the electric force on a electron at this point?

5. What is the magnitude of the proton's acceleration?

6. What is the magnitude of the electron's acceleration?

Explanation / Answer

1,2) F = q E = (1.60 * 10-19 C) * (100, 100) N/C

= (1.6 * 10-17, 1.6 * 10-17 ) N

---------------------------------------------------

3,4) F = -q E = (-1.60 * 10-19 C) * (100, 100) N/C

= (-1.6 * 10-17, -1.6 * 10-17 ) N

---------------------------------------------------

5) |F| = sqr((1.6 x 10-17 N)
