Q. A particle having charge q and mass m is projected with velocity $\vec{v} = 2\hat{i} - 3\hat{j}$ in a uniform electric field $\vec{E} = E_0 . \hat{j}$. Change in momentum $| \Delta \bar{p} | $ during any time interval t is given by :

Electric Charges and Fields

Solution:

Impulse = mv - mu = Change in momentum
= force $\times$ time $qE_0 \times t = qE_0t$
= Change in momentum
