Question
A point charge q is released from test at point A and accelerates in a uniform electric field E, reaching velocities vB and vC at positions B and C respectively. the distance from A to B and the distance from B to C are equal. What is the ratio between velocities (vB/vC) of the charge?

Since the charge is accelerating in a uniform electric field, the acceleration of the charge is constant. This means that the velocity at point B (vB) will be equal to the velocity at point C (vC). Therefore, the ratio of velocities (vB/vC) is 1.
