A tiny hole is made in the center of the negatively and positively charged plates of a capacitor, allowing a beam of electrons to pass through and emerge from the far side. If 59.2 V are applied across the capacitor plates and the electrons enter through the hole in the negatively charged plate with a speed of 9.7x103 km/s (note: 9.7 thousands kilo-meters per second), what is the speed of the electrons as they emerge from the hole in the positive plate? You may answer in km/s (or in m/s).
An electron's mass is 9.11 x 10^-31 kg, so at a velocity of 9.70
x 10^6 m/s, its kinetic energy is ½mv², or ½ (9.11 x 10^-31 kg)
(9.70 x 10^6 m/s)² = 8.57 x 10^-17 J.
An electron passing through a 59.7 V potential gains 59.7 eV of
energy (duh). Since 1 electron volt = 1.60217646 × 10^-19 joules,
59.7 eV = 9.552 x 10^-18 J
So the total energy of the electron after accelerating through the
plates is 2.5257 x 10^-17 J. Since kinetic energy E = ½mv², solving
for v gives
v = √[2E / m]
Substituting in the new energy and mass, we find the velocity to
be
v = √[2 (2.5257x 10^-17) / (9.11 x 10^-31 kg)] = 1.4461x
10^7m/s
=14461 km/s

A parallel-plate capacitor is charged to 5000 V. A proton is
fired into the center of the capacitor at a speed of
3.9×105 m/s as shown in (Figure 1). The proton is
deflected while inside the capacitor, and the plates are long
enough that the proton will hit one of them before emerging from
the far side of the capacitor.
What is the impact speed of the proton?
