Questions
In Millikan's oil drop experiment, an oil drop carrying a charge Q is held stationary by a potential difference 2400 V between the plates. To keep a drop of half the radius stationary the potential difference had to be made 600 V. What is the charge on the second drop?
detailed solution
Correct option is B
In balance condition,QE=mg⇒QVd=43πr3ρg ⇒Q∝r3V⇒Q1Q2=r1r23×V2V1 ⇒QQ2=rr/23×6002400=2⇒Q2=Q/2Talk to our academic expert!
