Question

In an optics experiment, a discharge tube is filled with singly ionized argon atoms, each having a mass of 6. 64times10 -26 kg. If the electric field inside the tube is 8300 N/C, find the magnitude of the acceleration of each argon ion. Express your answer with the appropriate units.

If the electric field inside the tube is 8300 N/C, find the magnitude of the acceleration of each argon ion. Express your answer with the appropriate units.

Explanation / Answer

Force=qE

Acceleration=force/mass=qE/m=1.6*10-19*8300/6.64*10-26=2*1010m/s2
