A1.0-μm-diameter oil droplet (density 900 kg/m^3) is negatively charged with the addition of 27 extra electrons. it is released from rest 2.0 mm from a very wide plane of positive charge, after which it accelerates toward the plane and collides with a speed of 3.5 m/s . what is the surface charge density of the plane?

surface charge density = 5.91  µC/m²

Explanation:

given data

diameter = 1 μm

radius = 0.5 × m

speed = 3.5 m/s

density 900 kg/m³

distance = 2 mm = 2 × m

to find out

surface charge density of the plane

solution

volume is express as

volume =

volume =

volume = 5.23 × m³

and

mass = density × volume

mass = 900 ×5.23×

mass = 4.712 × kg

and

from motion of equation

v² -u² = 2×a×s

here v is speed 3.5 and u initial is 0 and a is acceleration and s is distance

3.5²  = 2×a×2 ×

acceleration = 3062.5 m/s²

so from newton second law

Force = mass × acceleration

force = 4.712 × ×3062.5

force = 1.44305 × N

so

surface charge density =  

here q is charge with addition 27 extra electron and f is force and ∈ = 8.85×

surface charge density =  

surface charge density =  

surface charge density = 5.91 × C/m²

so surface charge density = 5.91  µC/m²

what is the speed of a softball that travels 20m in 2secs

speed = 20/2 = 10 m/s
