$A$ block of mass $m$ containing a net negative charge $-q$ is placed on a frictionless horizontal table and is connected to a wall through an unstretched spring of spring constant $k$ as shown. If a horizontal electric field $E$ parallel to the spring is switched on,then the maximum compression of the spring is:

  • A
    $\sqrt{qE/k}$
  • B
    $\sqrt{k/qE}$
  • C
    $qE/k$
  • D
    $\frac{2qE}{k}$

$A$ uniform electric field $E = (8m/e) \text{ V/m}$ is created between two parallel plates of length $1 \text{ m}$ as shown in the figure (where $m = \text{mass of electron}$ and $e = \text{charge of electron}$). An electron enters the field symmetrically between the plates with a speed of $2 \text{ m/s}$. The angle of the deviation $(\theta)$ of the path of the electron as it comes out of the field will be:

$A$ charged particle with charge $q$ and mass $m$ starts with an initial kinetic energy $K$ at the center of a uniformly charged spherical region of total charge $Q$ and radius $R$. $q$ and $Q$ have opposite signs. The spherically charged region is not free to move. The value of $K$ is such that the particle will just reach the boundary of the spherically charged region. How much time does it take for the particle to reach the boundary of the region?

$A$ small sphere carrying a charge $q$ is hanging in between two parallel plates by a string of length $L$. The time period of the pendulum is $T_0$. When the parallel plates are charged,the time period changes to $T$. The ratio $T/T_0$ is equal to

An inclined plane making an angle of $30^{\circ}$ with the horizontal is placed in a uniform horizontal electric field of $200 \, N/C$ as shown in the figure. $A$ body of mass $1 \, kg$ and charge $5 \, mC$ is allowed to slide down from rest at a height of $1 \, m$. If the coefficient of friction is $0.2$,find the time (in $s$) taken by the body to reach the bottom. $\left[ g = 9.8 \, m/s^2, \sin 30^{\circ} = 0.5, \cos 30^{\circ} = \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2} \approx 0.866 \right]$

$A$ particle with charge $q$ approaches a fixed particle with charge $Q$ with an initial velocity $v$. It comes to a stop at a closest distance $r$ from $Q$. If the particle $q$ is given an initial velocity $2v$,the closest distance will be:
