An electron is moving with constant velocity along the $x$-axis. If a uniform electric field is applied along the $y$-axis,then its path in the $x-y$ plane will be:

  • A
    $A$ straight line
  • B
    $A$ circle
  • C
    $A$ parabola
  • D

An electron of mass $m_e$ initially at rest moves through a certain distance in a uniform electric field in time $t_1$. $A$ proton of mass $m_p$ also initially at rest takes time $t_2$ to move through an equal distance in this uniform electric field. Neglecting the effect of gravity,the ratio of $t_2/t_1$ is nearly equal to
