1.33 A particle of mass m and charge (–q) enters the region between the two charged plates initially moving along x-axis with speed (like particle 1 in Fig. 1.33). The length of plate is L and a uniform electric field E is maintained between the plates. Show that the vertical deflection of the particle at the far edge of the plate is
Compare this motion with motion of a projectile in gravitational field discussed in Section 4.10 of Class XI Textbook of Physics.
