A uniform electric field having a magnitude of 2x103 N/Cexists between the lower, positively charged, and upper, negativelycharged, plates shown where L=10.0cm and d=2.00cm. If an electronis “launched” from point “A” with a velocity of magnitude 6x106 m/sand direction of 45º, as indicated:
a) Which, if either, of the plates will the electronstrike?
b) If the electron strikes a plate, at what horizontaldistance to the right of “A” will the
impact occur?
Notes: Assume the effect of gravity on the electron?sacceleration is negligible and that the electron experiences only2-D motion.

A uniform electric field having a magnitude of 2x10^3 N/Cexists between the lower, positively charged, and upper, negatively charged, plates shown where L=10.0cm and d=2.00cm. If an electron is projected at an angle θ above the horizontal, with the velocity Vo. Find the range of the electron. 

A uniform, upward-pointing electric field E of magnitude 5.00×103N/C has been set up between two horizontal plates by charging thelower plate positively and the upper plate negatively. The plateshave length L = 4 cm and separation d = 2.00 cm. Electrons are shotbetween the plates from the left edge of the lower plate.
The first electron has the initial velocity v0, which makes anangle ?=45° with the lower plate and has a magnitude of 9.95×106m/s.

a) Will this electron strike one of the plates? If so, what is thehorizontal distance from the left edge? If not enter the verticalposition at which the particle leaves the space between the plates.I got answer 0.028 meters which is WRONG from using other Cramsterposts so if someone could please show me another way to get anotheranswer.

b) Another electron has an initial velocity which has the angle?=45° with the lower plate and has a magnitude of 8.26×106 m/s.Will this electron strike one of the plates? If so, what is thehorizontal distance from the left edge? If not enter the verticalposition at which the particle leaves the space between the plates.

Other questions that have been asked about this topic, that Ihave found, have an electron that hits the upper plate, but with mynumbers it doesn't, so I'm having trouble with finding the verticalposition. The question reads as:

In a figure, a uniform upward pointing electric field E ofmagnitude of 4.00 * 10^3 N/C has been set up between two horizontalplates by charging the lower plate positively and the upper platenegatively. The plates have length L=4 cm and separation d=2 cm.Electrons are shot between the plates from the left edge of thelower plate.
An electron has an initial velocity which has the angle θ=45degrees with the lower plate and has a magnitude of 6.95 * 10^6m/s. Will this electron strike one of the plates? If so, what isthe horizontal distance from the left edge? If not, enter thevertical position at which the particle leaves the space betweenthe plates.
