A uniform electric field E Exists between two metal plates one negative and other positively charged . The plate length is l and the seperation of the plates is d . An electron and a proton start moving parallel to the plates towards the other e from the mid point of the seperation of plates at one end of the plates . Which of the two will have greater deviation when they come out of the plates if they start with 1) same initial velocity 2)same initial kinetic energy 3)same initial momentum

A electric field of $1.5 \times 10^{4} N C^{- 1}$ exists between two parallel plates of length 2 cm. An electron enters the region between the plates at right angles to the field with a kinetic energy of $E_{k} = 2000 e V .$ The deflection that the electron experiences at the deflecting plates is:
