Athin conducting square plate 1.0 m on the side is given a charge of-2.0 x 10-6 c. a proton is placed 1.0 en above the center of the plate, what is the acceleration of the proton? (enter the magnitude in m/s.) magnitude direction select the plate m/s2

Acceleration,

Explanation:

It is given that,

Side of the square plate, l = 1 m

Charge on the square plate,

Position of a proton, x = 1 cm

The electric field due to a parallel plate is given by :

Electric force is given by :

F = q E

e is the charge on electron

The acceleration of the proton can be calculated as :

m is the mass of proton

So, the acceleration of the proton is . Hence, this is the required solution.
