Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) \(v \propto \sqrt {\ln \left( {\frac{r}{{{r_0}}}} \right)} \)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(\frac{1}{2} m V^{2}=-q\left(V_{f}-V_{i}\right)\)

\(E = \frac{\lambda }{{2\pi {\varepsilon _0}r}}\)

\(\Delta \mathrm{V}=\frac{\lambda}{2 \pi \varepsilon_{0}} \ln \left(\frac{\mathrm{r}_{0}}{\mathrm{r}}\right)\)

\(\frac{1}{2} m v^{2}=\frac{-q \lambda}{2 \pi \varepsilon_{0}} \ln \left(\frac{r_{0}}{r}\right)\)

\(v \propto \sqrt{\ln \left(\frac{r}{r_{0}}\right)}\)
