    Magnetic fields (multiple choice)

    Homework Statement Problem 1 If all of the particles shown in the figure are electrons, what is the direction of the magnetic field that produced the indicated deflection? http://session.masteringphysics.com/problemAsset/1013281/5/jfk.Figure.24.Q35.jpg Choices Up (toward the top of the...

    Light polarization (lab questions)

    Thanks for trying to help me. Hm...let me try and be a little bit more clear. What I was trying to say, is the light passing through a single filter or two filters, is that light partially or completely polarized?

    Light polarization (lab questions)

    So in that case, would that mean that one filter has complete polarization and 2 filters is partial polarization?

    Light polarization (lab questions)

    Can anyone explain to me the difference between partially and completely polarized light?

    Light polarization (lab questions)

    Homework Statement I just have a few of questions about light polarization. We never discussed polarization in class, so I am slightly confused on a couple of questions. For the Experiment we used polarization filters. If I understood the difference between partially and completely...

    Electric potential and velocity of a proton

    Alright, thanks for the help. I shall try again later after reviewing the material.

    Electric potential and velocity of a proton

    1 v = 1 j/c so... 40 v = 40 j/c 40 j/c

    Electric potential and velocity of a proton

    Homework Statement http://session.masteringphysics.com/problemAsset/1020825/7/jfk.Figure.21.P56.jpg A proton's speed as it passes point A is 4.40×10^4 m/s. It follows the trajectory shown in the figure. What is the proton's speed at point B? Homework Equations Knowing this would be...

    What is the potential energy of an electron

    Alright, thanks for the help. I have the correct answer now. I have the rest of the problem worked out as well. Man...I wasted so much time on this problem when the only major mistake I made was the negative sign. Normally MasteringPhysics tells me if the sign is incorrect...

    What is the potential energy of an electron

    http://img410.imageshack.us/my.php?image=54425247kj6.gif Here is the entire problem. I can do the other 2 parts if I know how to do this part.

    What is the potential energy of an electron

    This time I tried the other equation... 1800 = U / (2*10^-9) 3.6*10^-6 = U still wrong. *edit* I made my post while you made yours...>_> Let me look into your post*

    What is the potential energy of an electron

    Homework Statement Part A - (Already solved) The electric potential at point A is 1800V. Part B - What is the potential energy of an electron at point A in the figure? Point A is .01m away from a charge of +2nCHomework Equations V=Uq U = (Kq1q2)/rThe Attempt at a Solution I think the...

    How Fast Must a Proton Travel to Cross an Electric Field?

    Hm...perhaps this equation v^2 = vo^2 + 2a(X - Xo) *edit* Yup...that would be the correct equation. Thanks for the help Doc Al.
