$A$ particle of mass $m$ and charge $(-q)$ enters the region between two charged plates,initially moving along the $x$-axis with a speed $v_{x} = 2.0 \times 10^{6} \; m \, s^{-1}$. If the electric field $E$ between the plates,which are separated by $0.5 \; cm$,is $9.1 \times 10^{2} \; N/C$,at what distance along the $x$-axis will the electron strike the upper plate (in $cm$)?
$(|e| = 1.6 \times 10^{-19} \; C, m_{e} = 9.1 \times 10^{-31} \; kg)$

$A$ uniform electric field,$\vec{E} = -400 \sqrt{3} \hat{y} \text{ NC}^{-1}$ is applied in a region. $A$ charged particle of mass $m$ carrying positive charge $q$ is projected in this region with an initial speed of $u = 2 \sqrt{10} \times 10^6 \text{ ms}^{-1}$. This particle is aimed to hit a target $T$,which is $5 \text{ m}$ away from its entry point into the field as shown schematically in the figure. Take $\frac{q}{m} = 10^{10} \text{ Ckg}^{-1}$. Then-
$(A)$ the particle will hit $T$ if projected at an angle $45^{\circ}$ from the horizontal
$(B)$ the particle will hit $T$ if projected either at an angle $30^{\circ}$ or $60^{\circ}$ from the horizontal
$(C)$ time taken by the particle to hit $T$ could be $\sqrt{\frac{5}{6}} \mu\text{s}$ as well as $\sqrt{\frac{5}{2}} \mu\text{s}$
$(D)$ time taken by the particle to hit $T$ is $\sqrt{\frac{5}{3}} \mu\text{s}$
