5. The electric field between two oppositely charged, parallel, conducting plates separated by a distance of 1 cm has a magnitude of 200 N/C. Calculate A) the electric potential energy of an alpha particle (doubly ionized Helium) positioned 8 mm above the lower negative plate, B) the surface charge density of each plate and C) the acceleration of the a-particle if it is placed close to the positive plate and released from rest.
