The length of the plates is 0.41m and the distance between the plates is 0.18m. (Your answer will be the positive magnitude of E in units of N/C, given to 3 decimal places of precision) e
A particle with charge q = +1e and mass m = 8.5 × 10-26 kg is injected horizontally with speed 2.5 × 106 m/s into the region between two parallel horizontal plates. The plates are 28 cm long and an unknown distance d apart. The particle is injected midway between the top and bottom plates. The top plate is negatively charged and the bottom plate is positively charged, so that there is an upward-directed electric field between the plates, of magnitude E = 38 kN/C.
