What is the magnitude of the total field at the point x = 0, z = 1.00 m in the xz-plane? What is the magnitude of the total field at the point x = 1.00 m, z = 0 in the xz-plane? What is the magnitude of the total field at the point x = 0, z = -0.25 m in the xz-plane?

An electron (Charge 1.6x10-19C, Mass 9.1x10-31Kg) is projected with an initial speed of 3.2x107 m/s at a 30o angle with the horizontal into the uniform field between the parallel plates as shown in the figure above. Assume the field between the plates is uniform and directed vertically upward and that the field outside the plate is zero. The dimensions ofthe plate are shown in the diagram. The electron enters the field at a point midway between the plates.(a) Which plate would the electron hit or miss(b) If the electron emerges just missing the plate then calculate the magnitude of the field. (c) What potential difference across the two plates is required to create the Electric-field you obtained in part (b)

Using the equation developed for the y-component of the field: (see image) Construct a graph showing the variation of the magnitude of the field along the y-axis, parallel to the direction of the dipole. Use a charge q= 1.00 nC and a charge separation distance d=10.00 cm. Show clearly the field variation for the following intervals: a) y<-d/2, b)-d/2<y<d/2 and c) d/2<y. NOTE: You can make your graph in excel, or any other program.
