The surface of a planet is found to be uniformly charged. When a particle of mass $m$ and no charge is thrown at an angle from the surface of the planet, it has a parabolic trajectory as in projectile motion with horizontal range $L$. A particle of mass $m$ and charge $q$, with the same initial conditions has a range $L / 2$. The range of particle of mass $m$ and charge $2 q$, with the same initial conditions is

A body having specific charge $8\,\mu {C} / {g}$ is resting on a frictionless plane at a distance $10\, {cm}$ from the wall (as shown in the figure). It starts moving towards the wall when a uniform electric field of $100 \,{V} / {m}$ 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 $....\, S.$
