Two identical positive charges are fixed on the $y$ -axis, at equal distances from the  origin $O$. A particle with a negative charge starts on the $x$ -axis at a large distance  from $O$, moves along the $+ x$ -axis, passes through $O$ and moves far away from $O$. Its acceleration $a$ is taken as positive in the positive $x$ -direction. The particle’s  acceleration a is plotted against its $x$ -coordinate. Which of the following best represents  the plot?

A toy car with charge $q$ moves on a frictionless horizontal plane surface under the influence of a uniform electric field $\vec E .$ Due to the force $q\vec E$ , its velocity increases from $0$ to $6\,\, m s^{-1}$ in one second duration. At that instant the direction of the field is reversed. The car continues to move for two more seconds under the influence of this field. The average velocity and tlie average speed of the toy car between $0$ to $3$ seconds are respectively

A positive charge particle of $100 \,mg$ is thrown in opposite direction to a uniform electric field of strength $1 \times 10^{5} \,NC ^{-1}$. If the charge on the particle is $40 \,\mu C$ and the initial velocity is $200 \,ms ^{-1}$, how much distance (in $m$) it will travel before coming to the rest momentarily

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)
