Problem Statement: The question is asking for the strength of an electric field that would
exert a force on an electron equal in magnitude to the electron's weight (gravitational force
acting on it). Essentially, it wants to find the electric field where the electric force balances the
electron's weight.

Underlying Concept: The problem involves the concept of forces acting on charged particles.
Two main forces are considered here: gravitational force (weight) and electric force. The
gravitational force acting on the electron is due to its mass and gravity, while the electric force
arises from the electron's charge in an electric field. By equating these two forces, we can find
the electric field strength required to balance the weight.

Relevant Formulas: The key formulas used are:

Weight (gravitational force) on electron:

Electric force on electron in an electric field:

where = mass of electron, = acceleration due to gravity, = charge on electron, and =
electric field strength.

Step-by-Step Calculation: 1. Write the gravitational force acting on the electron as

. 2. Write the electric force on electron as . 3. Set these forces

equal to balance the electron's weight: 4. Solve for the electric field :
This means the required electric field strength is .

Tips and Tricks: Remember that the force exerted by an electric field on a charge is simply
the product of the charge magnitude and the electric field strength. Also, keep track of units
and signs - the magnitude question means only absolute values are considered.

Common Mistakes: A common mistake is mixing up the variables or not equating the forces
correctly. For example, some might write instead of , which leads to
incorrect results.

Why Other Options Are Incorrect?: Options like 'mge' incorrectly multiply all terms instead
of dividing by the charge. 'e/mg' and 'e^{2} g/2m' do not properly represent the balancing
condition between electric and gravitational forces, so they are incorrect.

Problem Statement: The question asks which type of electric field causes a proton to follow a
curved or parabolic path shown in the image. It involves understanding how the electric field
affects the motion of a charged particle.

Underlying Concept: A proton, being positively charged, experiences a force when placed in
an electric field, given by . A uniform electric field exerts a constant force perpendicular
to the proton's initial velocity, causing it to accelerate in that direction and follow a curved,
parabolic trajectory similar to projectile motion under gravity.

Relevant Formulas: where is the force on the charge, is the charge of the proton,
and is the electric field vector.

Tips and Tricks: Remember that uniform electric fields have parallel and equally spaced field
lines, and they cause constant acceleration of charged particles in a direction perpendicular to
their initial motion.

Common Mistakes: Assuming the electric field is non-uniform or not constant, which would
produce non-parabolic or erratic trajectories. Another mistake is confusing electric force
direction with magnetic force effects.

Why Other Options Are Incorrect?: Options showing non-uniform or radial electric fields
would not produce a smooth parabolic trajectory because the force magnitude and direction
change, causing irregular motions, unlike the uniform field scenario.

When two objects are rubbed against each other, they undergo triboelectric charging, where :
One object gains electrons – becomes negatively charged (– q)
The other object loses electrons – becomes positively charged (+ q)
Since they acquire opposite charges, they will experience an attractive force due to
electrostatic interaction.

According Coulomb's Law, the electrostatic force between two point charges is

F=
where :
k is Coulomb's constant,
q1 and q2 are the charges on the objects,
r is the separation distance.
since q1 and q2 are of opposite signs, the force is attractive.
As per given condition, one object is positively charged and the other is negatively charged.
Opposite charges always attract, meaning the nature of the force is attractive.

11) Explain : The question asks how the electric field varies with distance r from an infinitely
large conducting sheet, focusing on its proportional relationship.
Concept : For an infinite conducting sheet, the electric field is uniform and does not depend
on distance from the sheet due to tis symmetry and infinite size.
Formula :

E= for a conducting sheet

(σ = surface charge density ε0 = vacuum permittivity)
Calculation : Since E is independent of r, the electric field remains constant at all points
away from the sheet.

horizontal component of velocity remains unaffected throughout the motion. So, it will not
contribute to the change in momentum. The components contributing to the change in
momentum will be the vertical components.
