Question

4) The motion of a singly ionized negatively charged ion moving parallel to the x axis is tracked. At x=5 cm the particle has 1.28 x 1016 J of kinetic energy at x-8 cm the kinetic energy is 1.0 x 1016 J at x-11 cm, 8.8 x 107 J and at x-14 cm, 8.4 x 107J. a) Is there an electric field present? If so, in which direction does the field's x component point? Explain your re b) Is the field uniform? How can you tell? c) Field present or not, at each of the four positions the electric potential can be measured. Devise two sets (four measurements each) of electrical potential values that are consistent with the data given. asoning
