Consider a parallel-plate capacitor with plate separation d, plate area A, whose plates have charge ±Q. A particle of charge q < 0 and mass m is released from rest at the negative plate of the capacitor and allowed to accelerate towards the positive plate. With what speed does the charge strike the positive plate?

Question

Consider a parallel-plate capacitor with plate separation d, plate area A, whose plates have charge ±Q. A particle of charge q < 0 and mass m is released from rest at the negative plate of the capacitor and allowed to accelerate towards the positive plate. With what speed does the charge strike the positive plate? Answer in terms of d, A, Q, q, m, and/or e0.

**Problem Statement:**

Consider a parallel-plate capacitor with plate separation \( d \), plate area \( A \), whose plates have charge \(\pm Q\). A particle of charge \( q < 0 \) and mass \( m \) is released from rest at the negative plate of the capacitor and allowed to accelerate towards the positive plate. With what speed does the charge strike the positive plate? Answer in terms of \( d \), \( A \), \( Q \), \( q \), \( m \), and/or \( \epsilon_0 \).
