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:

  • A
    smaller
  • B
    $5$ times greater
  • C
    equal
  • D
    $10$ times greater

The figures below depict two situations in which two infinitely long static line charges of constant positive line charge density $\lambda$ are kept parallel to each other. In their resulting electric field, point charges $+q$ and $-q$ are kept in equilibrium between them. The point charges are confined to move in the $x$ direction only. If they are given a small displacement about their equilibrium positions, then the correct statement(s) is(are):

In a certain region,a uniform electric field $E$ and a magnetic field $B$ are present in opposite directions. At the instant $t = 0$,a particle of mass $m$ carrying a charge $q$ is given a velocity $v_0$ at an angle $\theta$ with the $y$-axis,in the $yz$-plane. The time after which the speed of the particle would be minimum is equal to

Two equal negative charges $-q$ are fixed at the points $(0, a)$ and $(0, -a)$ on the $y-$ axis. $A$ positive charge $Q$ is released from rest at the point $(2a, 0)$ on the $x-$ axis. The charge will

$A$ 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?

$A$ pair of parallel metal plates are kept with a separation $d$. One plate is at a potential $+V$ and the other is at ground potential. $A$ narrow beam of electrons enters the space between the plates with a velocity $v_{0}$ and in a direction parallel to the plates. What will be the angle of the beam with the plates after it travels an axial distance $L$?
