1990B2 (modified) A pair of square parallel conducting plates, having sides of length 0.05 meter, are 0.01 meter apart and are connected to a 200 -volt power supply, as shown above. An electron is moving horizontally with a speed of `3×107` meters per second when it enters the region between the plates. Neglect gravitation and the distortion of the electric field around the edges of the plates.
a. Determine the magnitude of the electric field in the region between the plates and indicate its direction on the figure above.
b. Determine the magnitude and direction of the acceleration of the electron in the region between the plates.
c. Determine the magnitude of the vertical displacement of the electron for the time interval during which it moves through the region between the plates.
d. On the diagram below, sketch the path of the electron as it moves through and after it emerges from the region between the plates. The dashed lines in the diagram have been added for reference only.
