In an ink-jet printer, an ink droplet of mass $m$ is given a negative charge $q$ by a computer-controlled charging unit, and then enters at speed $v$ in the region between two deflecting parallel plates of length $L$ separated by distance $d$ (see figure below). All over this region exists a downward electric field which you can assume to be uniform. Neglecting the gravitational force on the droplet, the maximum charge that can be given so that it will not hit a plate is close to :

Four point $+ve$ charges of same magnitude $(Q)$ are placed at four corners of a rigid square frame as shown in figure. The plane of the frame is perpendicular to $Z-$ axis. If a $ -ve$ point charge is placed at a distance $z$ away from centre along axis $(z << L )$ then

An electron is released from the bottom plate $A$ as shown in the figure $(E = 10^4\, N/C)$. The velocity of the electron when it reaches plate $B$ will be nearly equal to

A stream of a positively charged particles having $\frac{ q }{ m }=2 \times 10^{11} \frac{ C }{ kg }$ and velocity $\overrightarrow{ v }_0=3 \times 10^7 \hat{ i ~ m} / s$ is deflected by an electric field $1.8 \hat{ j } kV / m$. The electric field exists in a region of $10 cm$ along $x$ direction. Due to the electric field, the deflection of the charge particles in the $y$ direction is $...........mm$

A charged particle (mass $m$ and charge $q$ ) moves along $X$ axis with velocity $V _{0}$. When it passes through the origin it enters a region having uniform electric field $\overrightarrow{ E }=- E \hat{ j }$ which extends upto $x = d$. Equation of path of electron in the region $x > d$ is
