    A current loop $ABCD$ is held fixed on the plane of the paper as shown in the figure. The arcs $ BC$ (radius $= b$) and $DA $ (radius $= a$) of the loop are joined by two straight wires $AB $  and $CD$. A steady current $I$ is flowing in the loop. Angle made by $AB$ and $CD$ at the origin $O$ is $30^o $. Another straight thin wire with steady current $I_1$ flowing out of the plane of the paper is kept at the origin.

    Due to the presence of the current $I_1$ at the origin

    An electron enters the space between the plates of a charged capacitor as shown. The charge density on the plate is $\sigma $. Electric intensity in the space between the plates is $E$. A uniform magnetic field $B$ also exists in that space perpendicular to the direction of $E$. The electron moves perpendicular to both $\vec E$ and $\vec B$ without any change in direction. The time taken by the electron to travel a distance $\ell $ is the space is
