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 vx (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 qEL22mvx

Compare this motion with motion of a projectile in gravitational field discussed in Section 4.10 of Class XI Textbook of Physics.

1.33 Charge on a particle of mass m = -q

Velocity of the particle = vx

Length of the plates = L

Magnitude of the uniform electric field between the plates = E

Mechanical force, F = Mass (m) * Acceleration (a)

a = Fm

a = qEm ………(1) { as electric force F = qE }

Time taken by the particle to cross the field of length
