In Fig. 22-61, an electron is shot at an initial speed of,v0=2.00106m/s at angle=40.0from an xaxis. It moves through a uniform electric field. A screen for detecting electrons is positioned parallel to the yaxis, at distancex=3.00m. In unit-vector notation, what is the velocity of the electron when it hits the screen?

Short Answer

Expert verified

The velocity of the electron when it hits the screen is.(1.53106m/s)i^(4.34105m/s)j^

Step by step solution

01

The given data

  1. Initial speed of electron,v0=2.00x106m/s
  2. The angle with x axis,0=40.0o
  3. The uniform electric field,E=(5.00N/C)j^
  4. Screen distance parallel to the x-axis,x=3.00m
02

Understanding the concept of electric field and kinematic equations

Since the electron is negatively charged, then (as a consequence of the magnitude of the electrostatic force on a point charge of magnitude q (given by F = qE, where E is the magnitude of the electric field at the location of the particle) with Newton鈥檚 second law) the field E pointing in the +y direction (which we will call 鈥渦pward鈥) leads to a downward acceleration. This is exactly like a projectile motion problem (but with g replaced with, acceleration

a=eE/m=8.78x1011m/s).

Formulae:

Using the concept of projectile motion, the time of travel by the electron,

t=xvocoso(i)

Now, the velocity of the electron using projectile motion,vy=vosinoat (ii)

03

Calculation of the velocity of the electron

t=3.00m(2.00106m/s)cos40.0o=1.96106s

The required velocity component using equation (ii) is given as:

vy=(2.00106m/s)sin40.0o(8.781011m/s2)(1.96106s)=4.34105m/s

Since the x component of velocity does not change, then the final velocity is.

(1.53106m/s)i^(4.34105m/s)j^
