Question #190863

An infinitely long line of charge has a linear charge density of 8.00×10^−12C/m.A proton is at distance 19.0cm from the line and is moving directly toward the line

with speed 1200m/s.How close does the proton get to the line of charge?

ViVf=λ2πϵ0lnrfriVfVi=Kie=mv22eV_i-V_f=\frac{\lambda}{2\pi \epsilon_0}\ln {\frac{r_f}{r_i}}\\V_f-V_i=\frac{K_i}{e}=\frac{mv^2}{2e}

λ2πϵ0lnrfri=mv22e810122π(8.851012)lnrf19=120022(9.57107)rf=18.0 cm-\frac{\lambda}{2\pi \epsilon_0}\ln {\frac{r_f}{r_i}}=\frac{mv^2}{2e}\\ -\frac{8\cdot10^{-12}}{2\pi (8.85\cdot10^{-12})}\ln {\frac{r_f}{19}}=\frac{1200^2}{2(9.57\cdot10^{7})}\\r_f=18.0\ cm
