A particle possessing q = 8.25 ÎĽC of charge and a mass of m = 8.55 g is fired at a speed of v = 459 cm/s between two horizontal charged plates of length L = 34.6 cm.
Assume that the electric field between the plates is uniform and has a constant value of E = 2030 N/C, directed upwards. Calculate the distance y by which the charge falls below a straight-line path when it reaches the end of the plates. Assume a gravitational acceleration of g = 9.81m/s².
What field strength will allow the particle to pass between the plates along a straight path?
field strength: N/C
