$A$ charged cork ball having mass $1 \text{ g}$ and charge $q$ is suspended on a light string in a uniform electric field as shown in the figure. The ball is in equilibrium at $\theta=37^{\circ}$,when the value of the electric field is $E=(3 \hat{i}+5 \hat{j}) \times 10^5 \text{ NC}^{-1}$. (Assume $T$ as tension in the string.) Which of the following options are correct? (Given,$\sin 37^{\circ}=0.60$ and $g=10 \text{ ms}^{-2}$)

Two insulating plates are both uniformly charged in such a way that the potential difference between them is $V_2 - V_1 = 20\ V$ (i.e.,plate $2$ is at a higher potential). The plates are separated by $d = 0.1\ m$ and can be treated as infinitely large. An electron is released from rest on the inner surface of plate $1$. What is its speed when it hits plate $2$? $(e = 1.6 \times 10^{-19}\ C, m_e = 9.11 \times 10^{-31}\ kg)$

In a certain region,a uniform electric field $E$ and a magnetic field $B$ are present in opposite directions. At the instant $t = 0$,a particle of mass $m$ carrying a charge $q$ is given a velocity $v_0$ at an angle $\theta$ with the $y$-axis,in the $yz$-plane. The time after which the speed of the particle would be minimum is equal to

Two identical positive charges $Q$ each are fixed at a distance of $2a$ apart from each other. Another point charge $q_0$ with mass $m$ is placed at the midpoint between the two fixed charges. For a small displacement $x$ along the line joining the fixed charges,the charge $q_0$ executes $SHM$. The time period of oscillation of charge $q_0$ will be:
