how does mobility of a charged particle vary with its mass
Answers

Mobility = (e t) ÷ m
Where,
e is charge
t is relaxation time
m is mass
From the above equation 'm' that is mass is inversely proportional to mobility.

Answer:
The mobility of a charged particle is inversely proportional to its mass.
Explanation:
- Mobility is the ratio of drift velocity to the electric field
- But the drift velocity is the product of the charge, electric field, and drift time divided by the mass of the particle
- Since the drift velocity is inversely proportional to the mass, the mobility is also inversely proportional to the mass of the particle
- If the mass of the particle increases, the mobility decreases
- If the mass of the particle will decrease, the mobility will increase
- Heavier particles will not be able to move as easily.
The mobility of a charged particle is inversely proportional to its mass.
