A long cylindrical volume contains a uniformly distributed charge of density ρρ. The radius of cylindrical volume is RR. A charge particle (q)\left(q\right) revolves around the cylinder in a circular path. The kinetic energy of the particle is :A long cylindrical volume contains a uniformly distributed charge of density ρ . The radius of cylindrical volume is R

Options

  1. AρqR24εo\dfrac{ρq{R}^{2}}{4{ε}_{o}}
  2. BρqR22εo\dfrac{ρq{R}^{2}}{2{ε}_{o}}
  3. Cqρ4ε0R2\dfrac{qρ}{4{ε}_{0}{R}^{2}}
  4. D4ε0R2qρ\dfrac{4{ε}_{0}{R}^{2}}{qρ}

Correct answer

A. ρqR24εo\dfrac{ρq{R}^{2}}{4{ε}_{o}}

Step-by-step solution

A long cylindrical volume contains a uniformly distributed charge of density ρ . The radius of cylindrical volume is R

Electric field due to a long cylinder is,

E=λ2πε0r=ρA2πε0rE = \dfrac{\lambda}{2\pi{ε}_{0}r} = \dfrac{ρA}{2\pi{ε}_{0}r}

If a charge qq is rotating in a circle of radius rr

mv2r=qE\dfrac{m{v}^{2}}{r} = qE ⇒mv2r=qρA2πε0r⇒12mv2=qρπR24πε0=qρR24ε0⇒ \dfrac{m{v}^{2}}{r} = q\dfrac{ρA}{2\pi{ε}_{0}r} ⇒ \dfrac{1}{2}m{v}^{2} = \dfrac{qρ\pi{R}^{2}}{4\pi{ε}_{0}} = \dfrac{qρ{R}^{2}}{4{ε}_{0}}
