$A$ sphere carrying charge $Q$ and having weight $w$ falls under gravity between a pair of vertical plates at a distance $d$ from each other. When a potential difference $V$ is applied between the plates,the acceleration of the sphere changes as shown in the figure,along the line $BC$. The value of $Q$ is:

  • A
    $\frac{2wd}{V}$
  • B
    $\frac{wd}{2V}$
  • C
    $\frac{wd}{V}$
  • D
    $\frac{\sqrt{2}wd}{V}$

$A$ particle of mass $m$ and charge $q$ is fastened to one end $A$ of a massless string having equilibrium length $\ell$,whose other end is fixed at point $O$. The whole system is placed on a frictionless horizontal plane and is initially at rest. If a uniform electric field $E$ is switched on along the $x$-direction as shown in the figure,then the speed of the particle when it crosses the $x$-axis is

An electron of mass $m_e$ initially at rest moves through a certain distance in a uniform electric field in time $t_1$. $A$ proton of mass $m_p$ also initially at rest takes time $t_2$ to move through an equal distance in this uniform electric field. Neglecting the effect of gravity,the ratio of $t_2/t_1$ is nearly equal to

$A$ particle of mass $m$ and carrying charge $-q_1$ is moving around a charge $+q_2$ along a circular path of radius $r$. Find the period of revolution of the charge $-q_1$.

$A$ charged particle with charge $q$ and mass $m$ starts with an initial kinetic energy $K$ at the center of a uniformly charged spherical region of total charge $Q$ and radius $R$. $q$ and $Q$ have opposite signs. The spherically charged region is not free to move. The value of $K$ is such that the particle will just reach the boundary of the spherically charged region. How much time does it take for the particle to reach the boundary of the region?
