figure. If s 1.7 mm and the voltage difference between the plates is AV= 99.8 V, determine how close, w. the electron will get to the
bottom plate. Put your answer in meters and include at 6 decimal places in your answer. Do not include units. The x-axis of the
coordinate system is in the middle of the parallel plate capacitor.
