An electron beam travelling through a cathode ray tube is subjected to simultaneous electric and magnetic fields. The electrons emerge with no deflection. Given that the potential difference across the parallel plates X and Y is 3.0 kV, and that the applied magnetic field is of strength 1.6 × 10-3 T, calculate the distance between the plates.
