Answer: Option (b) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

It is given that a positive test charge q is released from rest at a distance r away from a charge of +Q and a distance 2r which is away from a charge of +2Q.

Then test charge to the right immediately after being released.

Therefore, the net force will be as follows.

            F = \frac{kqQ}{r^{2}} - kq\frac{(2Q)}{(2r)^{2}}

               = \frac{4KqQ - 2KqQ}{4r^{2}}

               = \frac{KqQ}{2r^{2}}

           F = \frac{KqQ}{2r^{2}} > 0

Thus, we can conclude that the test charge move to the right immediately after being released.

Sunny_sXe [5.5K]

Answer : 4.483\times 10^{15}\ m/s^2.

Explanation:

It is given that,

Electric field strength, E=2.55\times 10^{4}\ N/C

We know that,

Charge of electron, q=1.6\times 10^{-19}\ C

Mass of electron, m=9.1\times 10^{-31}\ kg

From the definition of electric field, F=qE...............(1)

According to Newton's second law, F = ma..........(2)

From equation (1) and (2)

ma=qE

a=\dfrac{qE}{m}

a=\dfrac{1.6\times 10^{-19}\ C\times 2.55\times 10^{4}\ N/C }{9.1\times 10^{-31}\ kg}

a=0.4483\times 10^{16}\ m/s^2

or

a=4.483\times 10^{15}\ m/s^2

So, the horizontal component of acceleration of an electron is 4.483\times 10^{15}\ m/s^2.

Hence, it is the required solution.
