Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(D) \(\tan ^{-1}\left[\frac{{q}}{{mg}} \times \frac{{C}_{2}\left({V}_{1}+{V}_{2}\right)}{\left({C}_{1}+{C}_{2}\right)({d}-{t})}\right]\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Let \(E\) be electric field in air \(T \sin \theta=q E\) \(T \cos \theta=m g\) \(\tan \theta=\frac{q {E}}{m g}\) \({Q}=\left[\frac{{C}_{1} {C}_{2}}{{C}_{1}+{C}_{2}}\right]\left[{V}_{1}+{V}_{2}\right]\)…
