Problem

A particle having charge that of an electron and mass 1.6×10−30 kg1.6 \times 10^{-30}\,\text{kg} is projected with an initial speed uu at an angle 45∘45^\circ to the horizontal from the lower plate of a parallel plate capacitor as shown in the figure. The plates are sufficiently long and have separation 2 cm2\,\text{cm}. The maximum value of velocity of particle not to hit the upper plate is W×106 m s−1\sqrt{W} \times 10^6\,\text{m s}^{-1}. Take electric field between the plates as 103 V m−110^3\,\text{V m}^{-1} directed upward. Find WW.
