A deuteron and an α-particle are placed in an electric field. The forces acting on them are F1 and F2, and their accelerations are a1 and a2 respectively.
Deuteron(charge+e mass 2m) and alpha particle(charge+2e, mass 4m)Since the charge of deuteron and α-particle are different, the forces acting are different.
Thus
F1F2=q1q2=12
Also as their masses are different we get
F1F2=m1a1m2a2=12
or
a1a2=1
