In the early 1900's Robert Millikan discovered the peculiar property that charge came in little packets, no smaller than e = 1.602 x 10-19 C -- he had measured the charge of the electron. Here's (roughly) how he did it. He removed an electron from an initially neutral droplet of oil with diameter 0.5 ??μm. In a vacuum, he positioned the droplet between two metallic plates separated by 6 mm and fiddled with the potential (voltage) across the plates until the droplet would hover against the force of gravity. Droplets of this size with +e charge would hover, but only for a particular voltage (otherwise they would sink or rise). Given the parameters stated here, and the fact that the density of the oil was 831 kg/m3, what was the voltage that made the droplets hover? (give your answer with 0.1 V precision)

An electron flies into a parallel plate capacitor with length L=10cm and width d=2cm, with an electric field E=1000kV/cm (see the Fig.). 1. What should the maximum velocity be for the particle to be trapped, i.e., hit capacitor plates? [electron mass -mp= 9.1 × 10-31kg, its charge is q= −1.6 × 10−19C, the electric force is found as ? = ??]. Assume that electron flies right in the middle of a capacitor. 2. Find and plot its trajectory for this case (that is, case of maximum velocity).
