Passage IV (Questions 83–87)
A glass tube has a set of parallel metal plates and is
evacuated of air. The plates are attached to a battery of
100 volts. An electron, starting from rest at the nega-
tive plate, accelerates uniformly toward the positive
plate. At the same instant, a proton (which is 1835
times more massive than the electron) starts from rest
at the positive plate and accelerates toward the negative
plate. One can also apply a magnetic field across the
region between the plates by the use of externally
mounted current-carrying coils of wire.
83.
Compare the kinetic energies in electron-volts
of the proton and electron at the instant each
reaches its opposite plate.
A.
proton: 183,500 eV and electron: 0.05 eV
B.
proton: 1 eV and electron: 183,500 eV
C.
proton: 100 eV and electron: 100 eV
D.
proton: 0.05 eV and electron: 100 eV
84.
Assume that the original accelerating electric
field points horizontally north. A horizontal
magnetic field pointing west is now applied
using the external coils. What are the paths of
the electron and proton now?
A.
They both travel in a straight line without
deflecting.
B.
They are both deflected vertically upward.
C.
The proton is deflected vertically upward
and the electron downward.
D.
The proton is deflected to the west and the
electron to the east.
85.
How does the magnetic field affect the speed of
the electron and proton?
A.
The speeds of both are not affected.
B.
The proton speeds up and the electron
slows down.
C.
Both speed up due to the magnetic force.
D.
The electron speeds up and the proton
slows down.
86.
The magnetic coils are rotated so that the mag-
netic field is now parallel to the electric field
(north). What are the paths of the electron and
proton now?
A.
They are both deflected upward.
B.
The proton deflects downward and the
electron upward.
C.
Neither is deflected upward or downward.
D.
The proton is deflected to east and the
electron to west.
87.
The magnetic coils are turned off and an addi-
tional small set of parallel plates is mounted
horizontally to produce a vertically upward
electric field. The proton and electron, which
were traveling horizontally, enter the region
where the upward E field exists. What effect
does this field have on the paths of the proton
and electron?
A.
No effect; they are not deflected.
B.
The proton is deflected upward and the
electron downward.
C.
They are both deflected downward.
D.
The proton is deflected downward and the
electron upward.
Questions 88–95 are independent of any passage
and of each other.

The speeds of sound in air and aluminum are,
respectively, 340 m/sec and 5200 m/sec. What
are the respective wavelengths in air and alu-
minum of a 3600 Hz sound wave?
A.
0.28 m and 5.52 m
B.
0.09 m and 1.44 m
C.
0.28 m and 2.88 m
D.
1.34 m and 0.28 m
