(a)
Direction of force on positive charged particle by Fleming's left hand rule is towards direction of electric field.
As, electric force on positively charged particle is also in same direction. So, a positively charged particle will be deflected upwards.
Hence, no particle can get through the hole in slit.
So, option $(a)$ is correct.
