The electric field that can balance an electron of mass 3.2×10−27kgis.
A
19.6×10−8NC−1
B
20×10−6NC−1
C
19.6×108NC−1
D
20×106NC−1
Answer
19.6×108NC−1
Explanation
Solution
The spacing between electric lines of force increases from left to right. Therefore, E on left is greater than E on right. Force on +q charge of dipole is smaller and to the right. Force on −qcharge of dipole is bigger and to the left. Hence the dipole will experience a force towards the left.
