In a parallel plate air capacitor,a cathode beam comprising $n = 10^6$ electrons is emitted with a velocity $v_0 = 10^8\ m/s$ into the space between the plates. The potential difference between the plates is $\phi = 400\ V$,the separation between the plates is $d = 2\ cm$ and the area of each plate is $l^2 = 100\ cm^2$ (where $l$ is the length of the plate). The deflection of the electron beam is ........... $mm$.

$A$ horizontal electric field $E = (mg)/q$ exists as shown in the figure. $A$ mass $m$ with charge $q$ is attached to the end of a light rod of length $l$. If the mass $m$ is released from the position shown in the figure $(\theta = 45^{\circ})$,find the angular velocity of the rod when it passes through the bottom-most position.

An electron falls through a distance of $1.5 \; cm$ in a uniform electric field of magnitude $2.0 \times 10^{4} \; N C^{-1}$ [Figure $(a)$]. The direction of the field is reversed keeping its magnitude unchanged and a proton falls through the same distance [Figure $(b)$]. Compute the time of fall in each case. Contrast the situation with that of 'free fall under gravity'.
