Four point $+ve$ charges of same magnitude $(Q)$ are placed at four corners of a rigid square frame as shown in figure. The plane of the frame is perpendicular to $Z-$ axis. If a $ -ve$ point charge is placed at a distance $z$ away from centre along axis $(z << L )$ then

An electron enters a parallel plate capacitor with horizontal speed $u$ and is found to deflect by angle $\theta$ on leaving the capacitor as shown below. It is found that $\tan \theta=0.4$ and gravity is negligible. If the initial horizontal speed is doubled, then the value of $\tan \theta$ will be

A uniform electric field, $\vec{E}=-400 \sqrt{3} \hat{y} NC ^{-1}$ 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 $2 \sqrt{10} \times 10^6 ms ^{-1}$. This particle is aimed to hit a target $T$, which is $5 m$ away from its entry point into the field as shown schematically in the figure. Take $\frac{ q }{ m }=10^{10} Ckg ^{-1}$. 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 $\sqrt{\frac{5}{6}} \mu s$ as well as $\sqrt{\frac{5}{2}} \mu s$

$(D)$ time taken by the particle to hit $T$ is $\sqrt{\frac{5}{3}} \mu s$
