An electron and a proton are freely situation in an electric field. Will the electric force on them be equal. Will there acceleration be equal ? Explain with reason.

Answer»

Solution :We KNOW that proton and electron are equal in MAGNITUDE. So, the electric forces on them will be equal in magnitude but opposite in DIRECTION. The acceleration of the proton will be [1/1836] times the acceleration of electron because the mass of the proton is 1836 times the mass of electron.
