    Potential energy and proton acceleratoin

    well i found the right answer and it was nowhere near what I got. by the way i did originally have Q = 1.6*10^-18 C but you told me to change it.

    Potential energy and proton acceleratoin

    so here's what I did: Kf+Vf = Ki + Vi 0+qv= 1/2mv^2+ 0 qv= .5mv^2 (1.6*10^-19)(v)= (.5)(1.67*10^-27)(3*10^6m/s) v= .01565 V= kQ/R .01565= (9*10^9)(1.6*10^-19)/(R) R= 9.2* 10 ^-8 m but then I did this: leaving q = 1.6*10^-18 and changing Q= 1.6 *10^-19 [ proton charge] and then solving...

    Potential energy and proton acceleratoin

    So when I plugged in 1 *10^-19 C [charge of proton] I ended up with 9.2*10^-6 m which was not even an option on the multiple choice. I am confused, please help. If this helps the answers are: 1.9* 10^6m 3.1*10^-13m 5.5*10^-7 m 9.2 *10^-7 m

    Potential energy and proton acceleratoin

    Homework Statement A proton is accelerated to 3*10^6 m/s and heads towards a spherical charge distribution having a charge of 1.6*10^-18 C. Approximately how close to the distribution does the proton travel before stopping? (Assume inital potential energy of proton is zero). Vi= 0 Q=...
