Two masses $M_1$ and $M_2$ carry positive charges $Q_1$ and $Q_2$,respectively. They are dropped to the floor in a laboratory setup from the same height,where there is a constant electric field vertically upwards. $M_1$ hits the floor before $M_2$. Then,

  • A
    $Q_1 > Q_2$
  • B
    $Q_1 < Q_2$
  • C
    $M_1 Q_1 > M_2 Q_2$
  • D
    $M_1 Q_2 > M_2 Q_1$
