    A bullet of mass 2g is having a charge of 2\[\mu C\].Through what potential difference must it be accelerated, starting from rest, to acquire a speed of 10 m/s?                                                                            

    A) 5 kV          

    B) 50 kV            

    C) 5 V           

    D) 50 V

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    Key Idea: When bullet of mass m and charge q is accelerated through potential difference of V volt, then it attains a kinetic energy equal to qV. Kinetic energy of bullet \[=qV\] i.e.,\[\frac{1}{2}m{{v}^{2}}=qV\] \[\Rightarrow \]\[V=\frac{m{{v}^{2}}}{2q}\] Given, \[m=2g=2\times {{10}^{-3}}kg,\,\,v=10\,m/s,\] \[q=2\mu \,C=2\times {{10}^{-6}}C\] Substituting the values in relation for V, we obtain \[V=\frac{2\times {{10}^{-3}}\times {{(10)}^{2}}}{2\times 2\times {{10}^{-6}}}\] \[=50\times {{10}^{3}}\,\text{V}\,\text{=}\,\text{50}\,\text{kV}\]
