Question

) Positive 4(-) Timer Notes Evaluate e. Feedback-Print A positive charge of 4.60 uC is fixed in place. From a distance of 3.60 cm a particle of mass 5.10 q and charge +3.90 uC is fired with an initial speed of 72.0 m/s directly toward the fixed charge. How close to the fixed charge does the particle get before it comes to rest and starts traveling away? The particle comes to rest when it has no kinetic energy. The change in kinetic energy will be equal to the increase in electrical potential energy. Note that the particle has some potential energy at the starting point ubmit Answer Tries 1/20 Previous Tries Post Discussion Send Feedback

Explanation / Answer

from conservation of energu

k1+u1 = k2+u2

u2 = k1+u1

k2 = 0 (rest)

u2 = 1/2mv1^2+kq1q2/r1 = 1/2*5.1*10^-3*72^2+9*10^9*4.6*3.9*10^-12/0.036

u2 = 13.219+4.485 = 17.704

kq1q2/r1 = 17.702

r2 = 9*10^9*4.6*3.9*10^-12/17.702 = 0.912*10^-2 m = 0.912 cm
