    Electric potential and potential energy

    A proton is initially at rest (in a vacuum) in a uniform electric field of magnitude 1.30 10^3 N/C. (a) Calculate the force applied to the proton by the field. ANSWER: 2.08E-16 N (b) Apply Newton's second law to calculate the acceleration of the proton. (Don't be surprised if the...
