A proton beam passes horizontally between two parallel plates that create a uniform vertical electric field of strength E. The beam is deflected by a vertical distance y when it leaves the plates. If the potential difference between the plates is doubled while all other conditions remain the same, what is the new vertical deflection of the beam?
