$A$ sphere carrying charge $Q$ and having weight $w$ falls under gravity between a pair of vertical plates at a distance $d$ from each other. When a potential difference $V$ is applied between the plates,the acceleration of the sphere changes as shown in the figure,along the line $BC$. The value of $Q$ is:

  • A
    $\frac{2wd}{V}$
  • B
    $\frac{wd}{2V}$
  • C
    $\frac{wd}{V}$
  • D
    $\frac{\sqrt{2}wd}{V}$
