A particle with charge − 3.74 × 10 − 6 C is released at rest in a region of constant, uniform electric field. Assume that gravitational effects are negligible. At a time 8.36 s after it is released, the particle has a kinetic energy of 3.17 × 10 − 8 J. At what time t after the particle is released has it traveled through a potential difference of 0.401 V?

Answer:

57.5022228905 s

Explanation:

[tex]V_i[/tex] = Initial voltage

[tex]V_f[/tex] = Final voltage = 0.401 V

[tex]t_1[/tex] = Initial time = 8.36 s

[tex]t_2[/tex] = Final time

K = Kinetic Energy = [tex]3.18\times 10^{-8}\ J[/tex]

C = Charge = [tex]3.74\times 10^{-6}\ C[/tex]

Voltage is given by

[tex]V=\dfrac{K}{C}\\\Rightarrow V=\dfrac{3.17\times 10^{-8}}{3.74\times 10^{-6}}\\\Rightarrow V=0.00847593582888\ V[/tex]

We have the relation

[tex]\dfrac{V_i}{V_f}=(\dfrac{t_i}{t_f})^2\\\Rightarrow t_f=\sqrt{\dfrac{t_i^2V_f}{V_i}}\\\Rightarrow t_f=\sqrt{\dfrac{8.36^2\times 0.401}{0.00847593582888}}\\\Rightarrow t_f=57.5022228905\ s[/tex]

The time taken is 57.5022228905 s
