Question

A proton and an electron are placed freely in an electric field. Which of the particles will have greater acceleration? explain

Answer 1

F = q x E
=> m x a = q x E
=> a = ( q x E ) / m
=> a is inversely proportionL to Mass m
=> clearly mass of electron is much smaller than that mass of an electron...

So electron will have greater acceleration than proton when kept in a same Electric Field...

hope this help....

Answer 2

Answer:

acc of electron is greater than acc of proton

hope this helps u

all the best
