Knowing our teacher, it's entirely possible that this is beyond curriculum standards. We're going to try using the equations F/m = a = -w^2x and
F = -(nkq1q2)/r^2 to solve for magnitude of w. Can we do that?
The whole unit is called energy and momentum. We were doing simple harmonic motion, pendulums, springs, and static electricity as well as energy transformations.
Oh! that's right, oops. In that case, our Ee2 is (9.22*10^-24)*2 = 1.84*10^-23 (since it's 0.25m in relation to each of the two plates). Our velocity is then 2.8*10^3. Thank you so much.
There's still the issue of solving for the angular frequency (w) though.
using the following: Ee1 +EK1 = Ee2 + EK2
Ee = (n*k*q1*q2)/r EK = (mv^2)/2
however, at EK1, the velocity is 0 because the electron is at the turning point and therefore has no velocity so the equation ends up looking like this:
Ee1 + 0 = Ee2 + EK2

1. There are 2 negatively charged plates opposite each other. In between them, there is a vacuum tube (50 cm long), containing only 1 electron. Assume it is completely isolated.
The charge value for the plates is equivalent to 10000 electrons.
Initially the single electron is directly in the...
