$A$ charge $Q$ of mass $m$ revolves around a charge $q$ due to the electrostatic attraction between them. The time period of its motion can be given by the formula:

Two metal plates $(A, B)$ are kept horizontally with a separation of $(\frac{12}{\pi}) \text{ cm}$, with plate $A$ on the top. An atomizer jet sprays oil (density $1.5 \text{ g/cm}^3$) droplets of radius $1 \text{ mm}$ horizontally. All oil droplets carry a charge of $5 \text{ nC}$. The potentials $V_A$ and $V_B$ are required on plates $A$ and $B$ respectively in order to ensure the droplets do not descend. The values of $V_A$ and $V_B$ are . . . . . . . (Neglect the air resistance to the droplets and take $g = 10 \text{ m/s}^2$)

This question contains Statement-$1$ and Statement-$2$. Of the four choices given after the statements,choose the one that best describes the two statements.
Statement-$1$ : For a charged particle moving from point $P$ to point $Q$,the net work done by an electrostatic field on the particle is independent of the path connecting point $P$ to point $Q$.
Statement-$2$ : The net work done by a conservative force on an object moving along a closed loop is zero.
