Two horizontal plates of opposite charge form a constant electric field = 1000 N/C directed
vertically downwards. An electron of mass me and charge e* is fired horizontally with velocity v =
0.1c, where c = 3.00 x 108 m/s between the plates. Calculate the electron's acceleration. If the
plates have length 1 m, find the electron's deflection from the horizontal when it emerges.
