Uniform Electric Fields
 

Uniform Electric Fields problem 4


Two oppositely charged parallel plates are spaced 2 cm apart. A proton is at rest next to the positively charged plate. We connect a voltage of 40 kV across the plates so that the proton starts to move towards the negatively charged plate. How long does it take to reach it?


The base charge of a proton is , and the mass of the proton is .
