In electromagnetic theory, electric and magnetic phenomena are related to each other. Therefore, the dimensions of electric and magnetic quantities must also be related. In the questions below, $[E]$ and $[B]$ stand for dimensions of electric and magnetic fields respectively, while $[\varepsilon_0]$ and $[\mu_0]$ stand for dimensions of the permittivity and permeability of free space respectively. $L$ and $T$ are dimensions of length and time respectively. All quantities are in $SI$ units.
$(1)$ The relation between $[E]$ and $[B]$ is:
$(A)$ $[E]=[B][L][T]^{-1}$
$(B)$ $[E]=[B][L][T]$
$(C)$ $[E]=[B][L]^{-1}[T]$
$(D)$ $[E]=[B][L]^{-1}[T]^{-1}$
$(2)$ The relation between $[\varepsilon_0]$ and $[\mu_0]$ is:
$(A)$ $[\mu_0]=[\varepsilon_0][L]^2[T]^{-2}$
$(B)$ $[\mu_0]=[\varepsilon_0]^{-1}[L]^{-2}[T]^2$
$(C)$ $[\mu_0]=[\varepsilon_0][L]^{-2}[T]^2$
$(D)$ $[\mu_0]=[\varepsilon_0]^{-1}[L]^2[T]^{-2}$
Select the correct options for $(1)$ and $(2)$.

$A$ stream of charged particles enters a region with crossed electric and magnetic fields as shown in the figure below. On the other side is a screen with a hole that is right on the original path of the particles. Then,

An electron is moving with a velocity $\vec{v} = (2 \hat{i} + 3 \hat{j}) \text{ m/s}$ in an electric field $\vec{E} = (3 \hat{i} + 6 \hat{j} + 2 \hat{k}) \text{ V/m}$ and a magnetic field $\vec{B} = (2 \hat{j} + 3 \hat{k}) \text{ T}$. Calculate the magnitude and direction (with $x$-axis) of the Lorentz force acting on the electron.

In the case of the Hall effect for a strip having charge $Q$ and area of cross-section $A$,the Lorentz force is

$A$ charge $q$ is released in the presence of an electric field $(E)$ and a magnetic field $(B)$. After some time,its velocity is $v$. Then:
