Question: Q. 9. A particle of mass 103 kg and charge 5μC enters into a uniform electric field of 2×105NC1, moving with a velocity of 20 ms1 in a direction opposite to that of the field. Calculate the distance it would travel before coming to rest.

A [Delhi Comptt. I, II, III, 2012]

Show Answer

Solution:

Ans. Here, m=103 kg,q=5×106C,E=2×105 N/C, u=20 m/s,v=0

As the particle enters opposite to the field, so it will retard.

Acceleration

a=qEm =5×106×2×105103

=103 m/s2

Using,

v2=u22as

0=(20)22×1000×s

s=4002000=15=0.2 m

(AI) Q. 2. (i) Obtain the expression for the torque τ experienced by an electric dipole of dipole moment p in a uniform electric field, E.

(ii) What will happen if the field were not uniform?

R [Delhi III 2017]

Ans. (i) Obtaining expression for torque τ experienced by electric dipole in uniform electric field 2

(ii) Effect of non-uniform electric field

(i) Force on +q,F=qE

Force on q,F=qE

Magnitude of torque τ=qE×2asinθ

=2qaEsinθ

τ=p×E

(ii) If the electric field is non-uniform, the dipole experiences a translatory force as well as a torque.

Detailed Answer :

(i)

Consider electric dipole kept in an uniform electric field at an angle θ where a dipole experience a torque, so, torque generated by parallel forces qE will act as couple as

|τ|=qE2lsinθ =pEsinθ[ as p=2ql]1/2 |τ|=|p×E|

(ii) When the field is non-uniform, force acting on both ends will not be equal, hence they result in mixture of couple and net force. With this, dipole experiences rotational as well as linear force. 1
