    A problem of practical interest is to make a beam of electrons turn at $90^o$ corner. This can be done with the electric field present between the parallel plates as shown in the figure. An electron with kinetic energy $8.0 × 10^{-17}\ J$ enters through a small hole in the bottom plate. The strength of electric field that is needed if the electron is to emerge from an exit hole $1.0\ cm$ away from the entrance hole, traveling at right angles to its original direction is $y × 10^5\ N/C$ . The value of $y$ is
