The problem can be solved from conservation of energy approach
A) potential at midpoin = 500/2=250V
electrical potential energy of proton = 1.6*10-19*250=4*10-17 Joule
mass of proton = 1.67*10-27 kg
initial speed = 2*105 m/s
Kinetic energy of proton = (1/2)mv2 = (1/2)*1.67*10-27*(2*105)2 = 3.34*10-17 Joule
Total initial energy of proton =4*10-17 +3.34*10-17 = 7.34*10-17 Joule
For the proton to reach positive plate,minimum toatl inital energy needed of proton = 500*1.6*10-19 = 8*10-17 Joule
The total inital energy of proton is less than the energy required to reach positive plate.Therefore, proton cannot reach positive plate
b)When it hits the negative plate,there is not voltage at plate and hence electric potential energy of proton will be zero at negative plate. The entire initial energy will be converted into kinetic energy
Let the speed at which it will hit negative plate be v
(1/2)mv2 = 7.34*10-17
v = 296486.4 m/s

0 V 500 V Problem 5: A proton is fired to the right with a speed of 200,000 m/s from the midpoint between parallel charged plates as shown in the figure. a. Show that this is insufficient speed to reach the positive plate. b. What is the proton's speed as collides with the negative plate? 200,000 m/s Answers: (a) Show that! (b) 2.96 x 105 m/s ! 1
In the figure(Figure 1) , a proton is fired with a speed of
200,000m/s from the midpoint of the capacitor toward the positive
plate. This speed is insufficient to reach the positive plate.
What is the proton's speed as it collides with the negative
plate?
Express your answer with the appropriate units
A proton and an electron are released from rest at the same time from the midpoint between two charged parallel plates. The plates are charged with equal surface charge densities of opposite signs. Ignore the interaction between the electron and the proton and consider only the interaction of each charge with the electric field of the plates. After being released, the proton will accelerate toward the negative plate, and the electron will accelerate toward the positive plate. (a) Which charge...
