As we have learnt,

 

when Charged Particle at rest in uniform field -

Velocity - 

\dpi{100} v=\frac{QEt}{m}=\sqrt{\frac{2Q\Delta V}{m}}

 

 

- wherein

\Delta V= Potential difference.

 

 We know that kinetic energy K = \frac{1}{2}mv^2 = QV. Since m and V are same so, v^2 \propto Q\Rightarrow \frac{V_A}{V_B} = \sqrt{\frac{Q_A}{Q_B}} = \sqrt{\frac{q}{4q}} = \frac{1}{}2
