An electron is traveling through a region between two metal plates in which there is a constant electric field of magnitude E directed long the y direction as sketched in Figure P17.44. This region has a total length of L, and the electron has an initial velocity of v0Â Â long the x direction. (a) How long does it take the electron to travel the length of the plates? (b) What are the magnitude and direction of the electric force on the electron while it is between the plates? (c) What is the acceleration of the electron? (d) By what distance is the electron deflected (?y) when it leaves the plates? (e) What is the final velocity of the electron? (Give the magnitude and direction or give the components of the velocity along x and y.)
