$A$ particle with charge $e$ and mass $m$, moving along the $X$-axis with a uniform speed $u$, enters a region where a uniform electric field $E$ is acting along the $Y$-axis. The particle starts to move in a parabola. Its focal length (neglecting any effect of gravity) is

  • A
    $\frac{2 m u^{2}}{e E}$
  • B
    $\frac{e E}{2 m u^{2}}$
  • C
    $\frac{m u}{2 e E}$
  • D
    $\frac{m u^{2}}{2 e E}$

$A$ body having a specific charge of $8\,\mu \text{C/g}$ is resting on a frictionless plane at a distance of $10\,\text{cm}$ from a wall. It starts moving towards the wall when a uniform electric field of $100\,\text{V/m}$ is applied horizontally toward the wall. If the collision of the body with the wall is perfectly elastic,then the time period of the motion will be (in seconds):
