The bob of a simple pendulum has mass $2\,g$ and a charge of $5.0\,\mu C$. It is at rest in a uniform horizontal electric field of intensity $2000\,V/m$. At equilibrium,the angle that the pendulum makes with the vertical is (take $g = 10\,m/s^2$)

In Millikan's oil drop experiment,a charged particle is held in equilibrium between two plates by an electric field. If the direction of the electric field is reversed,calculate the acceleration of the charged particle. (in $, g$)

$A$ horizontal electric field $E = (mg)/q$ exists as shown in the figure. $A$ mass $m$ with charge $q$ is attached to the end of a light rod of length $l$. If the mass $m$ is released from the position shown in the figure $(\theta = 45^{\circ})$,find the angular velocity of the rod when it passes through the bottom-most position.

The uniform electric field intensity between the two plates of a parallel plate capacitor is $1 \times 10^3 \ Vm^{-1}$ acting vertically upwards as shown in the figure. The plates are sufficiently long and have a separation of $2 \ cm$. $A$ particle of negative charge $1 \ \mu C$ and mass $2 \ g$ is projected at an angle $45^{\circ}$ with the electric field from the lower plate with a velocity '$u$'. The maximum velocity acquired by the particle,if it does not hit the upper plate,is (in $ms^{-1}$)

If a particle of mass $10 \ mg$ and charge $2 \ \mu C$ at rest is subjected to a uniform electric field of potential difference $160 \ V$,then the velocity acquired by the particle is (in $ms^{-1}$)
