Near the surface of the Earth there is an electric field of about 150 V/m which points downward. Two identical balls with mass 0.321 kg are dropped from a height of 2.15 m , but one of the balls is positively charged with q1 = 360 μC , and the second is negatively charged with q2=-360 μC .

Use conservation of energy to determine the difference in the speeds of the two balls when they hit the ground. (Neglect air resistance.)

The difference in the speeds of the two balls when they hit the ground is mathematically given as

V=0.10m/s

What is the difference in the speeds of the two balls when they hit the ground.?

Generally, the equation for Acceleration due to  electric field is mathematically given as

[tex]A=g+\frac{q1E}{m}\\\\Therefore\\\\A=9.8*\frac{600*1000*150*}{0.520}\\\\A=9.97m/s2[/tex]

For Negative charge

[tex]A=g+\frac{q1E}{m}\\\\A=9.8*\frac{-600*1000*150*}{0.520}\\\\A=9.62m/s2[/tex]

In conclusion, the speed of the negative ball

[tex]v1=\sqrt{2ah}\\\\v1=\sqrt{2*9.67*2m}[/tex]

v1=6.21m/s

The  difference in v

V=v1-v2

V=6.31-6.21

V=0.10m/s
