The correct Answer is:
To find the potential difference between points A and B, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Identify the given values - Mass of the particle, \( m = 1 \, \text{g} = 0.001 \, \text{kg} \) - Charge of the particle, \( q = 2 \, \text{C} \) - Initial speed at point A, \( u = 0 \, \text{m/s} \) (released from rest) - Final speed at point B, \( v = 2 \, \text{m/s} \) ### Step 2: Use the kinematic equation We will use the kinematic equation: \[ v^2 = u^2 + 2as \] Substituting the known values: \[ (2)^2 = (0)^2 + 2as \] This simplifies to: \[ 4 = 2as \] From this, we can express \( as \): \[ as = 2 \] ### Step 3: Express acceleration in terms of force The force acting on the particle due to the electric field is given by: \[ F = qE \] By Newton's second law, we also have: \[ F = ma \] Setting these equal gives: \[ ma = qE \] From this, we can express acceleration \( a \): \[ a = \frac{qE}{m} \] ### Step 4: Substitute acceleration back into the equation Substituting \( a \) back into the equation \( as = 2 \): \[ \left(\frac{qE}{m}\right)s = 2 \] Thus, we can express \( s \): \[ s = \frac{2m}{qE} \] ### Step 5: Calculate the work done The work done by the electric field is equal to the change in potential energy, which can be expressed as: \[ \Delta U = F \cdot s = qEs \] Substituting \( s \): \[ \Delta U = qE \left(\frac{2m}{qE}\right) = 2m \] ### Step 6: Relate potential difference to change in potential energy The potential difference \( \Delta V \) is given by: \[ \Delta V = \frac{\Delta U}{q} \] Substituting \( \Delta U \): \[ \Delta V = \frac{2m}{q} \] ### Step 7: Substitute the known values Now substituting the values of \( m \) and \( q \): \[ \Delta V = \frac{2 \times 0.001 \, \text{kg}}{2 \, \text{C}} = \frac{0.002}{2} = 0.001 \, \text{V} \] Thus, \[ \Delta V = 1 \, \text{mV} \] ### Final Answer The potential difference between points A and B is \( 1 \, \text{mV} \). ---
