A charged particle $'q'$ is shot from a large distance with speed $v$ towards a fixed  charged particle $Q$. It apporaches $Q$ upto a closet distance $r$ and then returns. If $q$ were given a speed $'2v$', the closest distance of approach would be 

816-826

  • A

    $r$

  • B

    $2r$

  • C

    $r/2$

  • D

    $r/4$
