1 (a) In a Millikan-type experiment, two horizontal plates are 2.5 cm apart. A latex
15
sphere, of mass 1.5 10 kg , remains stationary when the potential
difference between the plate is 460V with the upper plate positive.
(b) Two large, horizontal metal plates are separated by 0.05 m. A small plastic
15
Electric force of 4.5 10 N , just sufficient to balance its weight. If the
19
charge on the sphere is 6.4 10 C , calculate the potential difference
(c) An investigator determines the charges on several different oil droplets with
apparatus similar to Millikans and claims that the data in Table 1 are accurate
to the number of digits shown.
Table 1
Calculate the value of the elementary charge that can be deduced from these
data? [5]

5.0 10 m is used to illuminate the metal.
(b) Calculate

(c) X rays of frequency 1.53 10 Hz cause the emission of electrons from a
18
material with a maximum kinetic energy of 2.18 10 J. Calculate the
