Question

A positively charged particle is moving in the +y-direction when it enters a region with a uniform electric field pointing in the +x-direction. Which of the diagrams below shows its path while It is in the region where the electric field exists? The region with the field is the region between the plates bounding each figure. The field lines always point to the right. The x-direction is to the right; they-direction is up. A uniform linear charge of total charge 12.0 nC is distributed along the x axis from x = 0 to x = 3 m. What is the linear charge density (lambda) for this charge distribution? What is the electric field vector at y = 4 m on the y axis? Set up the Integrals only.

Explanation / Answer

5)

the correct answer is option d)

electric force is F = qE thus, when the particle enter to the plates comes to feel a force directed in the positive x-axis. Because this is already the direction for the electric field. Therefore, is caused a oblique deflection in his path.

I can help you wit the other question but you need post again as a new question.
