Chapter 21, Problem 85GP
Suppose electrons enter a uniform electric field midway between two plates at an angle θ0 to the horizontal, as shown in Fig. 21–75. The path is symmetrical, so they leave at the same angle θ0 and just barely miss the top plate. What is θ0? Ignore fringing of the field.

lar nonconducting rings are centered
on the same line with their planes
perpendicular to the line. Each ring
has charge that is uniformly distrib-

rings each produce electric fields at points along the line. For three
situations, the charges on rings A and B are, respectively, (1) qo and
9o, (2) -90 and -90, and (3) - and qo. Rank the situations
according to the magnitude of the net electric field at (a) point P1
