Motion of a charged particle

Question

A uniform electric field E is present horizontally along the paper throughout region but uniform magnetic field B0 is present horizontally (perpendicular to plane of paper in inward direction) right to the line AB as shown. A charge particle having charge q and mass m is projected vertically upward and crosses the line AB after time t0. The speed of projection if particle moves after t0 with constant velocity. (given qE = mg) is nto. Find the value of ‘n’. (g = 9.8 m/s2)

Difficult
Solution

When crosses AB
qvB0cosθ=mgqvB0sinθ=qEtanθ=qEmg=1θ=π4 along horizontal vcosθ=qEmt0
ugt0=vsinθu=g+qEmt0=2gt0
