In Figure a uniform upward electric field E of magnitude 2.00 x 103 N/C has been set up between two horizontal plates by charging the lower plate positively and the upper plate negatively. The plates have length L = 10.0cm and separation d = 2.00cm. An electron is then shot between the plates from the left edge of the lower plate. The initial velocity v₀ of the electron makes an angle ? = 45.0^o with the lower plate and has a magnitude of 6.00 x 10⁶ m/s.

(a) With the electron strike one of the plates?

(b) If so, which plate and how far horizontally from the left edge will the electron strike?
