Two charged particles of charge + 2q & +q have masses m and 2m respectively. They are kept in same uniform electric field and allowed to move for same time. The ratio of their kinetic energies is-

A

8 : 1

B

16 : 1

C

2 : 1

D

3 : 1

Answer

8 : 1

Explanation

Solution

In electric field; a =

vel. of charge particle after time t = at Ž v = t

K.E. = 1/2 mv2 = 1/2m = 1/2

= = (2qq)2\left( \frac { 2 q } { q } \right) ^ { 2 }×= 8 :1
