Homework Statement
[/B]
A proton is accelerated from rest at the positive plate of two charged parallel plates with a potential difference of 2000 v. After leaving the plates through a small hole in the negative plate, it enters a uniform magnetic field of 0.50 T in a direction perpendicular to the magnetic field directed out the page as shown in the diagram. Find the acceleration of the proton.
