Two metal plates having a potential difference of $800 \; V$ are $0.02 \; m$ apart horizontally. $A$ particle of mass $1.96 \times 10^{-15} \; kg$ is suspended in equilibrium between the plates. If $e$ is the elementary charge,then the charge on the particle is:

  • A
    $e$
  • B
    $3e$
  • C
    $6e$
  • D

$A$ positive charge particle of $100 \,mg$ is thrown in the opposite direction to a uniform electric field of strength $1 \times 10^{5} \,NC^{-1}$. If the charge on the particle is $40 \,\mu C$ and the initial velocity is $200 \,ms^{-1}$,how much distance (in $m$) will it travel before coming to rest momentarily?

Two balls of charge $q_1$ and $q_2$ initially have a velocity of the same magnitude and direction. After a uniform electric field is applied for a certain time,the direction of the velocity of the first ball changes by $60^{\circ}$,and the velocity magnitude is reduced by half. The direction of the velocity of the second ball changes by $90^{\circ}$. In what proportion will the velocity of the second ball change? Determine the magnitude of the charge-to-mass ratio for the second ball if it is equal to $k_1$ for the first ball. The electrostatic interaction between the balls should be neglected.

$A$ charged particle with charge $q$ and mass $m$ starts with an initial kinetic energy $K$ at the centre of a uniformly charged spherical region of total charge $Q$ and radius $R$. Charges $q$ and $Q$ have opposite signs. The spherically charged region is not free to move and kinetic energy $K$ is just sufficient for the charged particle to reach the boundary of the spherical charge. How much time does it take the particle to reach the boundary of the region?

In a parallel plate air capacitor,a cathode beam comprising $n = 10^6$ electrons is emitted with a velocity $v_0 = 10^8\ m/s$ into the space between the plates. The potential difference between the plates is $\phi = 400\ V$,the separation between the plates is $d = 2\ cm$ and the area of each plate is $l^2 = 100\ cm^2$ (where $l$ is the length of the plate). The deflection of the electron beam is ........... $mm$.
