JEE Main & Advanced Physics Electrostatics & Capacitance Question Bank Electric Field and Potential

  • question_answer
    A charged particle of mass \[m\] and charge \[q\] is released from rest in a uniform electric field \[E.\] Neglecting the effect of gravity, the kinetic energy of the charged particle after ?t? second is                                      [KCET 2003]

    A)            \[\frac{E{{q}^{2}}m}{2{{t}^{2}}}\]                                   

    B)            \[\frac{2{{E}^{2}}{{t}^{2}}}{mq}\]

    C)            \[\frac{{{E}^{2}}{{q}^{2}}{{t}^{2}}}{2m}\]

    D)                                      \[\frac{Eqm}{t}\]

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

                 When charge q is released in uniform electric field \[E\] then its acceleration \[a=\frac{qE}{m}\] (is constant) So its motion will be uniformly accelerated motion and its velocity after time t is given by \[v=at\]\[=\frac{qE}{m}t\] Þ KE \[=\frac{1}{2}m{{v}^{2}}=\frac{1}{2}\,{{\left( \frac{qE}{m}t \right)}^{2}}=\frac{{{q}^{2}}{{E}^{2}}{{t}^{2}}}{2m}\]
