A free electron and a free proton are released in identical electric fields. Compare the magnitudes of their accelerations.
  1.It is millions of times greater for the electron.
  2.It is thousands of times greater for the electron.
  3.They are equal.
  4.It is thousands of times smaller for the electron.
  5.It is millions of times smaller for the electron.

Question 2

What would be the value of the acceleration when  (theta) in Fig. 5.2 in the Laboratory Guide is increased to 90? (Draw a small sketch to help you visualize this.)
