Question
Equipotential surface A has a potential of 5650 V, while equipotential surface B has a potential of 7850 V. A particle has a mass of 5.40 10-2 kg and a charge of 5.10 10-5 C. The particle has a speed of 2.00 m/s on surface A. A nonconservative outside force is applied to the particle, and it moves to surface B, arriving there with a speed of 3 m/s. How much work is done by the outside force in moving the particle from A to B

Answer:
0.247 J = 247 mJ
Explanation:
From the principle of conservation of energy, the workdone by the applied force, W = kinetic energy change + electric potential energy change.
So, W = ΔK + ΔU =1/2m(v₂² – v₁²) + q(V₂ – V₁) where m = mass of particle = 5.4 × 10⁻² kg, q = charge of particle = 5.10 × 10⁻⁵ C, v₁ = initial speed of particle = 2.00 m/s, v₂ = final speed of particle = 3.00 m/s, V₁ = potential at surface A = 5650 V, V₂ = potential at surface B = 7850 V.
So, W = ΔK + ΔU =1/2m(v₂² – v₁²) + q(V₂ – V₁)
= 1/2 × 5.4 × 10⁻²kg × ((3m/s)² – (2 m/s)²) + 5.10 × 10⁻⁵ C(7850 – 5650)
= 0.135 J + 0.11220 J
= 0.2472 J
≅ 0.247 J = 247 mJ
