An electron enters the homogenous electric field with a velocity of 9.0 x 10^-6 m/s on a parallel plate capacitor perpendicular to the field lines. The length of the plates of the capacitor 1 = 65 mm with a distance d = 50mm apart from each other. The potential difference between the plates is 150 V.
1) Find the acceleration of the electron in the y-direction.
2) How much time does it take for the electron to move through the capacitor?
3) How far from the x-axis the electron is when it leaves the plates of the capacitor?
4) Calculate the velocity of the electron in the y-direction when it leaves the electric field.
5) Determine the angle that the velocity of the electron makes the x-axis when it leaves the electric field.

The parallel plates have a potential difference of 2800 V and a separation of 32 cm. a) Will the proton travel to the left or to the right? b) If the proton starts at rest, what will its velocity be when it reaches the plate that it is travelling towards? c) Suppose instead that instead of starting at rest, the proton is travelling in the upwards direction with a constant velocity. If you wanted to balance the proton so that it doesn't head towards either of the parallel plates, you could use a magnetic field.
