A stream of a positively charged particles having qm=2×1011 C kg-1 and velocity v0=3×107 i^ m s-1 is deflected by an electric field 1.8j^ kV m-1. The electric field exists in a region of 10 cm along x direction. Due to the electric field, the deflection of the charge particles in the y direction is _____  mm.

Solution

Acceleration of the particles due to electric field, a=Fm=qEm=2×10111.8×103

=3.6×1014 m s-2

Time to cross plates =dv

t=0.103×107

Now deflection,

y=12at2=123.6×10140.103×1072

=0.002 m

=2 mm
