A oil drop having a mass 4.8 10⁻¹⁰ ~g and charge 2.4 10⁻¹⁸ C stands still between two charged horizontal plates separated by a distance of 1 ~cm . If now the polarity of the plates is changed, instantaneous acceleration of the drop is : (g=10 ~ms ⁻² )
Options
- A5 ~ms ⁻²
- B10 ~ms ⁻²
- C15 ~ms ⁻²
- D20 ~ms ⁻²
Correct answer
B. 10 ~ms ⁻²
Step-by-step solution
a= F m = q E m = m g m g=10 ~m / s ^2
