Two horizontal parallel plates are separated by a distance of (167) creating an electric field of (30) directed north. An electron is place halfway between the two plates with and fired with initial velocity (65) from the horizontal. Calculate the time it takes for the electron to land at the positive plate and its speed before hitting the plate.
