A small object with mass mm, charge qq, and initial speedv0v0 = 6.00×103 m/sm/s is projected into a uniform electric field between two parallel metal plates of length 26.0 cmcm(Figure 1). The electric field between the plates is directed downward and has magnitude EE = 800 N/CN/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 dd = 1.15 cmcm from its original direction of motion and reaches a collecting plate that is 56.0 cmcm from the edge of the parallel plates. Ignore gravity and air resistance. Calculate the object's charge-to-mass ratio, q/mq/m
