12th Class Physics Electric Charges and Fields Question Bank Case Based (MCQs) - Electric Charges and Fields

  • question_answer
    Two equal and opposite charges of masses \[{{m}_{1}}\]and \[{{m}_{2}}\]are accelerated in an uniform electric field through the same distance. What is the ratio of their accelerations if their ratio of masses is\[\frac{{{m}_{1}}}{{{m}_{2}}}=0.5\]?

    A) \[\frac{{{a}_{1}}}{{{a}_{2}}}=2\]

    B) \[\frac{{{a}_{1}}}{{{a}_{2}}}=0.5\]

    C) \[\frac{{{a}_{1}}}{{{a}_{2}}}=3\]

    D) \[\frac{{{a}_{1}}}{{{a}_{2}}}=1\]

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    Force is same in magnitude for both \[\therefore \,\,\,\,{{m}_{1}}{{a}_{1}}={{m}_{2}}{{a}_{2}};\] \[\frac{{{a}_{1}}}{{{a}_{2}}}=\frac{{{m}_{1}}}{{{m}_{2}}}=\frac{1}{0\,.\,5}=2\]
