A particle of mass m and charge -q enters the region between the two charged plates initially moving along x-axis with speed `v_(x)` as shown in figure. The length of plate is L and a uniform electric field E is maintained between the plates. The vertical deflection of the particle at the far edge of the plate is

A

`(qEL^(2))/(2mv_(x)^(2))`

B

`(qEL^(2))/(2mv_(x))`

C

`(2mv_(x)^(2))/(qEL^(2))`

D

`(2mv_(x))/(qE^(2)L)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A
Here, in the vertical direction,
initial velocity, v = 0
acceleration, `a=F/m=(qE)/m" "(therefore F=qE)" "...(i)`
Time taken to cross the field, `t=(distance)/(velocity)=L/v_(x)" "...(ii)`
(`therefore` velocity along the horizontal direction is constant)
`therefore" "s=vt+1/2at^(2)`
`therefore" "` Deflection,
`y=0+1/2((qE)/m)(L/v_(x))^(2)`
[Using (i) and (ii)]
`therefore" "y=(qEL^(2))/(2mv_(x)^(2))`

Figure shows an assembly of deflecting plates A and B ofan ink-jet printer which causes moving ink droplets to deflect at desired displacements by continuously varying electric field between the plates. An ink drop with a mass m = 1.3 xx 10^(-10)kg and a negative charge of magnitude q = 1.5x x 10^(-13)C enters the region between the plates, initially moving along the x-axis with speed v_(x), = 18m//s . The length of plates is L = 1.6cm . The plates are connected with a varying voltage and thus produce an electric field at all points between them. Assume that field vec(E) for some duration is constant and it is acting in downward direction as shown and has a magnitude of E = I .4 xx 10^(6) N//C , find the vertical deflection of the drop at the far edge ofthe plate? As the gravitational force on the drop is very small relative to the electrostatic force acting on the drop, it can be neglected for this analysis. [6.4 xx 10^(-4)m]
