A simple pendulum with a bob of mass $m = 1\ kg$ , charge $q = 5\mu C$ and string length $l = 1\ m$ is given a horizontal velocity $u$ in a uniform electric field $E = 2 × 10^6\ V/m$ at its bottom most point $A$ , as shown in figure. It is given a speed $u$ such that the particle leave the circular path at its topmost point $C$ . Find the speed $u$ . (Take $g = 10\ m/s^2$ )

Identify the $WRONG$ statement

A particle $A$ has charge $+q$ and particle $B$ has charge $+4 q$ with each of them having the same mass $m$. When allowed to fall from rest through the same electric potential difference, the ratio of their speeds $\frac{V_A}{V_B}$ will become

A problem of practical interest is to make a beam of electrons turn at $90^o$ corner. This can be done with the electric field present between the parallel plates as shown in the figure. An electron with kinetic energy $8.0 × 10^{-17}\ J$ enters through a small hole in the bottom plate. The strength of electric field that is needed if the electron is to emerge from an exit hole $1.0\ cm$ away from the entrance hole, traveling at right angles to its original direction is $y × 10^5\ N/C$ . The value of $y$ is
