An oil drop of 12 excess electrons is held stationary undera constant electric field of 2.25*10^4 NC^-1 in millikan's oil drop experiment.The density of the oil is 1.26g cm^-3.Estimate the radius of the drop.(g=9.81 m s^-2;e=1.60*10^-19 c)...plz ans me with correct explanation.

Excess electrons on an oil drop, n = 12
Electric field intensity, E = 2.55 × 104 N C−1
Density of oil, ρ = 1.26 gm/cm3 = 1.26 × 103 kg/m3
Acceleration due to gravity, g = 9.81 m s−2
Charge on an electron, e = 1.6 × 10−19 C
Radius of the oil drop = r
Force (F) due to electric field E is equal to the weight of the oil drop (W)
F = W
Eq = mg
Ene
Where, q = Net charge on the oil drop = ne
m = Mass of the oil drop
= Volume of the oil drop × Density of oil
= 9.82 × 10−4 mm
Therefore, the radius of the oil drop is 9.82 × 10−4mm.
