Q: A bullet of mass 2 g is having a charge of 2 μC. Through what potential difference must it be accelerated, starting from rest, to acquire speed of 10 m/sec
(a) 5 kV
(b) 50 kV
(c) 5 V
(d) 50 V

Ans: (b)
Sol: K = qV
1/2 mv2 = qV
V = (mv)2/2q
= (2 × 10-3 × (10)2)/(2 × 2 × 10(-6) )
= 5 × 104 V
= 50 kV
