Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
B
Given,
Mass of electron, 
Intensity of electric field, 
From, Newton's second law of motion.
… (i)
the force on a charge exerted by an electric field is given as
… (ii)
where, 
is the intensity of the field and 
is the charge of the body
By modifying first equation,
… (iii)
Substituting the value of 
in the Eq. (iii) from Eq. (ii), we get
