A large flat metal surface has a uniform charge density `+sigma`. An electron of mass `m` and charge `u` and returns to it at point `B`. Disregard gravity . The maximum value of `AB` is

A

`(2 u^(2) m epsilon_(0))/(sigma e)`

B

`(u^(2) e epsilon_(0))/(m sigma)`

C

`(u^(2) e)/(epsilon_(0) m sigma)`

D

`(u^(2) sigma e)/(epsilon_(e ) m)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
1


`AB` will be maximum if `theta = 45^(@)`
`(AB)_(max) = (u^(2))/(((e sigma)/(2 in_(0)))//m) = (2m u^(2) in_(0))/(e sigma)`
