$A$ block of mass $m$ and charge $q$ is connected to a point $O$ with an inextensible string. This system is on a horizontal table. An electric field $E$ is applied perpendicular to the string and in the plane of the horizontal table. The tension in the string when it becomes parallel to the electric field is

  • A
    $qE$
  • B
    $2qE$
  • C
    $\frac{3qE}{4}$
  • D
    $3qE$

$A$ simple pendulum consists of a sphere with a mass of $8 \ \mu g$ and a charge of $39.2 \times 10^{-10} \ C$. When a horizontal electric field of $20 \times 10^3 \ V/m$ is applied,what angle (in degrees) does the string make with the vertical?

Two large parallel plates are charged such that the potential difference between them is $V_2 - V_1 = 20\ V$. Plate $2$ is at a higher potential. The plates are separated by a distance of $0.1\ m$ and can be considered infinitely large. An electron is released from rest at the inner surface of plate $1$. What is its speed when it strikes plate $2$? $(e = 1.6 \times 10^{-19}\ C, m_0 = 9.11 \times 10^{-31}\ kg)$

What is the magnitude of the upward electric field (in $V/m$) required to keep a coin of mass $10^{-6} \ kg$ and charge $10^{-6} \ C$ in equilibrium? (Take $g = 10 \ m/s^2$)

$A$ uniform electric field of $10\,N/C$ is created between two parallel charged plates (as shown in the figure). An electron enters the field symmetrically between the plates with a kinetic energy of $0.5\,eV$. The length of each plate is $10\,cm$. The angle $(\theta)$ of deviation of the path of the electron as it comes out of the field is $.........$ (in degrees).
