On Fig. 7.1, sketch the particle's path while it is between the plates and after it leaves them.
For the particle in the region between the plates, state an expression, in terms of $E$, $m$, $q$, $v$ and $L$, as appropriate, for the force $F$ on the particle.
For the particle in the region between the plates, state an expression, in terms of $E$, $m$, $q$, $v$ and $L$, as appropriate, for the time $t$ for the particle to cross the region between the plates.
State the law of conservation of linear momentum.
Use your answers in (a)(ii) to state an expression for the change in momentum of the particle.
Suggest and explain whether the law of conservation of linear momentum applies to the particle moving between the plates.
