2. Electric Potential and Capacitance
medium
An $\alpha$ particle and a proton are accelerated from rest through the same potential difference. The ratio of linear momenta acquired by above two particals will be.
A
$\sqrt{2}: 1$
B
$2 \sqrt{2}: 1$
C
$4 \sqrt{2}: 1$
D
$8: 1$
(JEE MAIN-2022)
Solution
$p =\sqrt{2 mE }=\sqrt{2 mqV }$
$\frac{ p _{\alpha}}{ p _{ p }}=\sqrt{\frac{ m _{\alpha} q _{\alpha}}{ m _{ p } q _{ p }}}=\sqrt{\frac{4}{1} \times \frac{2}{1}}$
$=\frac{2 \sqrt{2}}{1}$
