If a particle of mass $10 \ mg$ and charge $2 \ \mu C$ at rest is subjected to a uniform electric field of potential difference $160 \ V$,then the velocity acquired by the particle is (in $ms^{-1}$)

Assertion : $A$ deuteron and an $\alpha -$ particle are placed in an electric field. If $F_1$ and $F_2$ are the forces acting on them and $a_1$ and $a_2$ are their accelerations respectively,then $a_1 = a_2$.
Reason : Forces will be same in an electric field.
