Initial speed of electron
Final speed of electron
Distance between the plates
a)
As electron gets accelerated towards the positive plate, charge on the first plate must be negative and charge on second plate must be positive.
b)
Force on electron is
So Electric field direction and direction of motion of electron are opposite to each other.
Direction of electric plate is from second plate(+ve) to first plate(-ve).
c)
Length of each plate is
Area of plate( square)
Capacitance of the parallel plates is
Gain in kinetic energy of electron between the plates = Loss in potential energy from one plate to another plate
( Potential between the plates
,
is the charge on each plate )
