Here we will calculate the work per unit charge on an electron moving between two potentials. A 9.0 V battery is connected across two large parallel plates that are separated by 4.5 mm of air, creating a potential difference of 9.0 V between the plates. (a) What is the electric field in the region between the plates? (b) An electron is released from rest at the negative plate. If the only force on the electron is the electric force exerted by the electric field of the plates, what is the speed of the electron as it reaches the positive plate? The mass of an electron is me=9.11×10−31kg.

•• al and bert are jogging side-by-side on a trail in the woods at a speed of 0.75 m/s. suddenly al sees the end of the trail 35 m ahead and decides to speed up to reach it. he accelerates at a constant rate of 0.50 m/s2, while bert continues on at a constant speed. (a) how long does it take al to reach the end of the trail? (b) once he reaches the end of the trail, he immediately turns around and heads back along the trail with a constant speed of 0.85 m/s. how long does it take him to meet up with bert? (c) how far are they from the end of the trail when they meet?

You are a sales representative for a company that makes a new alternate fuel for vehicles. you have prepared a presentation for the environmental engineers to sell your new product. what question do you expect the audience to ask regarding whether the new fuel will cause less damage to the environment? a. do we have to change any parts of the vehicle to use this alternate fuel? b. will the vehicles get better fuel mileage with the alternate fuel? c. how much greenhouse gas does your fuel produce compared with current fuel sources? d. is the alternate fuel more expensive than fossil fuel?

The force needed to overcome static friction is usually less than that needed to overcome kinetic friction.true or false?
