Answer:
9.98 × 10⁻⁹ C
Explanation:
mass, m = 1.00 × 10⁻¹¹ kg
Velocity, v = 23.0 m/s
Length of plates D₀ = 1.80 cm = 0.018 m
Magnitude of electric field, E = 8.20 × 10⁴ N/C
drop is to be deflected a distance d = 0.290 mm = 0.290 × 10⁻³ m
density of the ink drop = 1000 kg/m^3
Now,
Time =
or
Time =
or
Time = 6.9 × 10⁻⁴ s
Now, force due to the electric field, F = q × E
where, q is the charge
Also, Force = Mass × acceleration
q × E = 1.00 × 10⁻¹¹ × a
or
a =
Now from the Newton's equation of motion
where,
d is the distance
u is the initial speed
a is the acceleration
t is the time
or
or
q = 9.98 × 10⁻⁹ C
