$A$ cathode ray tube contains a pair of parallel metal plates $1.0 \, cm$ apart and $3.0 \, cm$ long. $A$ narrow horizontal beam of electrons with a velocity $3 \times 10^7 \, m/s$ passes down the tube midway between the plates. When a potential difference of $550 \, V$ is maintained across the plates,it is found that the electron beam is deflected such that it just strikes the end of one of the plates. The specific charge of the electron in $C/kg$ is:

  • A
    $1.8 \times 10^9$
  • B
    $1.8 \times 10^{10}$
  • C
    $1.8 \times 10^{11}$
  • D
    $1.8 \times 10^{12}$
