A parallel-plate capacitor has 2.0cm×2.0cmelectrodes with surface charge densities ±1.0×10−6C/m2. A proton traveling parallel to the electrodes at 1.0×106m/s enters the center of the gap between them. By what distance has the proton been deflected sideways when it reaches the far edge of the capacitor? Assume the field is uniform inside the capacitor and zero outside the capacitor.

Short Answer

Expert verified

The proton been deflected sideways when it reaches the far edge of the capacitor is

a=0.108×1014m2s

t=2×10−8sec

y=2.2mm

Step by step solution

01

Acceleration and Velocity

→η=1×10−6( charge densities)

From inside battery, there must be an electric current due to just a paired surface.

E=ηϵo=acceleration

a=qEmp

=qηϵomp

a=1.6×10−19×10−68.85×10−12×1.67×10−27

a=0.108×1014m2s

So there is no force as in downward motion, the pace is same:

d=vt

t=dv

=2×10−2106

=2×10−8sec

02

Distance

With in vertical motion, ion sweep area

y=ut+12at2

y=12×0.108×1014×2×10−82

y=2.2mm

An ammonia moleculeNH3 has a permanent electric dipole moment5.0×1030Cm. A proton is 2.0nm from the molecule in the plane that bisects the dipole. What is the electric force of the molecule on the proton?

An electric dipole is formed from two charges, ±q, spaced1.0cm apart. The dipole is at the origin, oriented along the y-axis. The electric field strength at the point x,y=(0cm,10cm)is 360N/C.

a. What is the charge q? Give your answer in nC.

b. What is the electric field strength at the pointx,y=10cm,0cm?

An electric field can induce an electric dipole in a neutral atom or molecule by pushing the positive and negative charges in opposite directions. The dipole moment of an induced dipole is directly proportional to the electric field. That is, p→=αE→, where αis called the polarizability of the molecule. A bigger field stretches the molecule farther and causes a larger dipole moment.

a. What are the units of α?

b. An ion with charge qis distancerfrom a molecule with polarizability α. Find an expression for the force F→ionondipole.
