Question

An electron enters the region of a uniform electric field as shown, with υ_i = 3.00 x 10⁶ m/s and E = 200 N/C. The horizontal length of the plates is ℓ = 0.100 m.
(A) Find the acceleration of the electron while it is in the electric field. (B) Assuming the electron enters the field at time t = 0, find the time at which it leaves the field. (C) Assuming the vertical position of the electron as it enters the field is y_i = 0, what is its vertical position when it leaves the field?

The electron undergoes a downward
acceleration (opposite É), and its motion
is parabolic while it is between the plates.
