JEE Main 2020 — Electrostatics Question with Solution
From: JEE Main 2020 (Online) 8th January Evening Slot
Question
A particle of mass m and charge q is released
from rest in a uniform electric field. If there is
no other force on the particle, the dependence
of its speed v on the distance x travelled by it
is correctly given by (graphs are schematic and

Correct answer
B

Step-by-step explanation
As F = qE
ma = qE
a =
Also we know, v2 = u2 + 2as
v2 = 0 + 2s
v =
ma = qE
a =
Also we know, v2 = u2 + 2as
v2 = 0 + 2s
v =
