Motion of Charges in an Electric Field

An electric charge of magnitude '2e2e' and mass '2m2m' is moving in an electric field 'E'. The acceleration imparted to the charge is

Show answer and solution

Answer: (b)

  1. a=Fm=qEma = \frac{F}{m} = \frac{qE}{m}
  2. a=2eE2m=eEma = \frac{2eE}{2m} = \frac{eE}{m}
  3. So the answer is (b) eEm\frac{eE}{m}.
