If electrons are removed from a neutral body, its mass decreases.
true or false
Answers
Given : If electrons are removed from a neutral body. its mass decreases.
To check : True or false.
solution : we know, mass of each electron is 9.1 × 10¯³¹ kg (approximately).
if N electrons are removed from a neutral body of mass M.
then, mass of removed N electrons , m = N × 9.1 × 10¯³¹ Kg
Therefore mass of ionised body (after removing of electrons) = M - N × 9.1 × 10¯³¹ Kg ≤ M
It is clear that initial mass of body is greater than that of final mass.
Therefore mass of body decreases.
hence statement is true.
