Question: A 1 6 0 VV battery is connected across two parallel metal plates of area 2 8 . 5 cm 2 cm 2 and separation

A 160 VV battery is connected across two parallel metal plates of area 28.5 cm2cm2 and separation 8.00 mmmm. A beam of alpha particles (charge +2e+2e, mass 6.641027kg6.641027kg) is accelerated from rest through a potential difference of 1.65 kVkV and enters the region between the plates perpendicular to the electric field.
Part A
What magnitude of magnetic field is needed so that the alpha particles emerge undeflected from between the plates?
