    A negatively charged oil drop is prevented from falling under gravity by applying a vertical electric field\[100\text{ }V{{m}^{-1}}\]. If the mass of the drop is\[1.6\times {{10}^{-3}}g,\] the number of electrons carried by the drop is\[(g=10\text{ }in{{s}^{-2}})\]

    A)  \[{{10}^{18}}\]                 

    B)         \[{{10}^{15}}\]

    C)  \[{{10}^{6}}\]                   

    D)         \[{{10}^{9}}\]

    E)  \[{{10}^{12}}\]

    Correct Answer: E

    Solution :

    \[qE=mg\] or            \[ne\times E=mg\] \[n\times 1.6\times {{10}^{-19}}\times 100=1.6\times {{10}^{-6}}\times 10\] \[n={{10}^{12}}\]
