The mass of a proton is 1836 times that of an electron. If they fall through the same potential difference, find the ratio of their velocities.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

(i) What are the factors affecting work done on a charged body in an electric potential ?
How is the kinetic energy related to the mass an velocity ?
`((1)/(2)m_(p)v_(p)^(2) = (1)/(2)m_(e)v_(e)^(2), m_(p) = 1836 m_(e))`
(ii) `(V_(p))/(V_(e)) = (1)/(sqrt(1836))`
