Similar situation to the previous question, but now the object s mass is 25.8 kg and you initially put the boxes of protons and electrons 36 m apart. Now you want to take the two boxes and move them farther apart, to a new distance of 90 m apart. How much work (that is, energy) would you have to expend to pull the boxes that much farther apart, fighting against the electrostatic attraction between them?

Beams of high-speed protons can be produced in “guns” using electric fields to accelerate the protons. (a) What acceleration would a proton experience if the gun’s electric field were 2.00 * 10^4 N/C? (b) What speed would the proton attain if the field accelerated the proton through a distance of 1.00 cm?
a) An electron gun is used to produce a beam of electrons with a known velocity. The accelerating voltage is 5000 V and the electron mass and charge are 9.1 x 10-31 kg and -1.6 x 10-19 C respectively. Calculate the velocity of the electrons. b) Electrons in a narrow beam travelling at a steady speed of 4.19 x 107 m/s are directed into the space between two oppositely charged parallel plates which are 419 mm long and 60 mm apart. The plate at the top carries a negative charge and the plate at the bottom carries an equal positive charge. The potential difference between the plates is 250 V. The initial direction of the beam is parallel to the plates and midway between them. Draw a diagram showing the direction of the field lines between the plates. Include a description and sketch the path of the electrons as they travel through the field. i) Calculate the force on each electron between the plates. ii) Calculate the time each electron spends between the plates.

Nobel laureate Richard Feynman (1918-1988) once said that if two persons stood at arm's length from each other and each person had 1% more electrons than protons, the force of repulsion between them would be enough to lift a "weight" equal to that of the entire Earth. Carry out an order-of-magnitude calculation to substantiate this assertion. FN 10
