Homework Statement
Protons are being accelerated through a potential difference of 5,000 V in the gun of a particle accelerator. They must pass between two parallel deflecting plates that are 0.06 m long and 0.02 m apart with a potential difference between them of 1,500 V
Homework Equations
Ep = kQ1Q2 / d^2
E= V/d
F = QE
V = Change in Ep / Q
I = Q/t
V = kQ / d
The Attempt at a Solution
First part asks me:
What is the kinetic energy of protons leaving the gun?
What do i do?
