Answer:
Acceleration of the proton will be equal to [tex]4.79\times 10^{14}m/sec^2[/tex]
Explanation:
We have given electric field [tex]E=5\times 10^6N/C[/tex]
Mass of proton is equal to [tex]m=1.67\times 10^{-27}kg[/tex]
And charge on proton is equal to [tex]e=1.6\times 10^{-19}C[/tex]
Electrostatic force will be responsible for the motion of proton
Electrostatic force will be equal to [tex]F=qE=1.6\times 10^{-19}\times 5\times 10^6=8\times 10^{-13}N[/tex]
According to newton law force on the proton will be equal to F = ma, here m is mass of proton and a is acceleration
This newton force will be equal to electrostatic force
So [tex]1.67\times 10^{-27}\times a=8\times 10^{-13}[/tex]
[tex]a=4.79\times 10^{14}m/sec^2[/tex]
So acceleration of the proton will be equal to [tex]4.79\times 10^{14}m/sec^2[/tex]
