Hydrogen ion and singly ionized helium atom are accelerated, from rest, through the same potential difference. The ratio of final speeds of hydrogen and helium ions is close to:

(1) 1 : 2

(2) 2 : 1

(3) 5 : 7

(4) 10 : 7

Correct answer: (1) 1 : 2

Explanation:

qV = 1/2mv2

Hence v ∝1/√m

vH/vHe = √4/1 = 2 : 1
