A small object with mass m, charge q, and initial speed v0 = 6.00×10³ m/s is projected into a uniform electric field between two parallel metal plates of length 26.0 cm (Figure 1). The electric field between the plates is directed downward and has magnitude E = 800 N/C. Assume that the field is zero outside the region between the plates. The separation between the plates is large enough for the object to pass between the plates without hitting the lower plate. After passing through the field region, the object is deflected downward a vertical distance d = 1.35 cm from its original direction of motion and reaches a collecting plate that is 56.0 cm from the edge of the parallel plates. Ignore gravity and air resistance. Figure - 26.0 cm- VO E 56.0 cm < 1 of 1 >

q/m=__C/kg
A small object with mass m, charge q, and initial speed
vo = 6.00×10³ m/s is projected into a uniform electric field between
two parallel metal plates of length 26.0 cm (Figure 1). The electric field
between the plates is directed downward and has magnitude
E = 800 N/C. Assume that the field is zero outside the region
between the plates. The separation between the plates is large enough
for the object to pass between the plates without hitting the lower
plate. After passing through the field region, the object is deflected
downward a vertical distance d = 1.35 cm from its original direction of
motion and reaches a collecting plate that is 56.0 cm from the edge of
the parallel plates. Ignore gravity and air resistance.
