$A$ cathode ray tube contains a pair of parallel metal plates $1.0 \, cm$ apart and $3.0 \, cm$ long. $A$ narrow horizontal beam of electrons with a velocity $3 \times 10^7 \, m/s$ passes down the tube midway between the plates. When a potential difference of $550 \, V$ is maintained across the plates,it is found that the electron beam is deflected such that it just strikes the end of one of the plates. The specific charge of the electron in $C/kg$ is:

  • A
    $1.8 \times 10^9$
  • B
    $1.8 \times 10^{10}$
  • C
    $1.8 \times 10^{11}$
  • D
    $1.8 \times 10^{12}$

$A$ ball of mass $1 \text{ g}$ having a charge of $20 \mu\text{C}$ is tied to one end of a string of length $0.9 \text{ m}$ and can rotate in a vertical plane in a uniform electric field of $100 \text{ NC}^{-1}$ directed upwards. The minimum horizontal velocity that must be given to the ball at the lowest position so that it completes the vertical circle is (Let $g = 10 \text{ ms}^{-2}$): (in $\text{ ms}^{-1}$)

$A$ charged bead is sliding freely through a string held vertically under tension. An electric field is applied parallel to the string so that the bead stays at rest at the middle of the string. If the electric field is switched off momentarily and switched on again,then

If an electron and an $\alpha$-particle are accelerated under a potential difference of $100 \, V$, what is the ratio of their momenta?

$A$ uniform vertical electric field $E$ is established in the space between two large parallel plates. $A$ small conducting sphere of mass $m$ is suspended in the field from a string of length $L$. If the sphere is given a $+q$ charge and the lower plate is charged positively,the period of oscillation of this pendulum is:

The coordinates of $A, B, C$ and $D$ are $(a, b, 0), (2a, 0, 0), (a, -b, 0)$ and $(0, 0, 0)$ respectively. How much work is done in moving a charge $q$ from $A$ to $D$ in a uniform electric field $\vec{E}$ directed along the positive $x$-axis?
