| $7.1.4.$ A particle of mass $m$ with a charge $q > 0$ enters a flat capacitor, the plates of which are metal grids. The field strength in the capacitor is $E$, the distance between the grids is $d$. The initial velocity $v$ of the particle makes an angle $\alpha$ with the plane of the first grid. With what velocity and at what angle to the plane of the second grid will the particle fly out of the capacitor? |
