$A$ 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 electron of mass $m_e$ initially at rest moves through a certain distance in a uniform electric field in time $t_1$. $A$ proton of mass $m_p$ also initially at rest takes time $t_2$ to move through an equal distance in this uniform electric field. Neglecting the effect of gravity,the ratio of $t_2/t_1$ is nearly equal to

An electron falls from rest through a vertical distance $h$ in a uniform and vertically upward directed electric field $E$. The direction of the electric field is now reversed,keeping its magnitude the same. $A$ proton is allowed to fall from rest in it through the same vertical distance $h$. The time of fall of the electron,in comparison to the time of fall of the proton,is:
