An electron falls from rest through a vertical distance in a uniform and vertically upward directed electric field The direction of the electric field is now reversed, keeping its magnitude the same. A proton is allowed to fall from rest in it through the same vertical distance The time of fall of the electron, in comparison to the time of fall of the proton is
10 times greater
5 times greater
smaller
equal
To solve this problem, we need to analyze the motion of both the electron and the proton in the electric field.Given:โข An electron falls from rest through a distance in a uniform electric field โข The electric field is reversed, and a proton falls from rest through the same distance The force on a charged particle in an electric field is given by
