$A$ small point mass carrying some positive charge is released from the edge of a table. There is a uniform electric field in this region in the horizontal direction. Which of the following options correctly describes the trajectory of the mass? (Curves are drawn schematically and are not to scale).

Consider a particle of mass $1 \text{ g}$ and charge $1.0 \text{ C}$ is at rest. Now the particle is subjected to an electric field $E(t) = E_0 \sin(\omega t)$ in the $x$-direction,where $E_0 = 2 \text{ N/C}$ and $\omega = 1000 \text{ rad/s}$. The maximum speed attained by the particle is: (in $\text{ m/s}$)
