In an oil drop experiment, charged oil drops of mass m and charge q are released at a height h, one at a time, at intervals ∆t > square root 2h/g. The drops are collected in a large metal sphere of radius R with a small opening at the top. The total number of drops that are able to enter the sphere will be
ouaoy!!!!!! nice problem!!!!
Yep it's a good problem
ok Δt is given so we ignore any next drop will working with the rpevius
Yeah no drops will be at the same point at a time
|dw:1333619031731:dw| even more drop drops due to its weight 1st drop has only W 2nd drop has W AND an electrical appauling force from sfaire now charged q 3 drop W and electrical from 2q
do you see
Oh yeah the metal is a conductor so charge will be accumulated at the surface
exactly!!!!!
Yep got it thanx
