Particle has no vertical velocity initially. We also know that when a force is perpendicular to the direction of motion, the acceleration produced does not affect the velocity of the object, rather just changes its direction.

From the previous part we know that the time the particle takes to move a horizontal distance of 12 cm. Use that time, and use s = 1/2 a t^2 (no initial vertical speed of particle so ut = 0)
It gives us s = .71cm. Thus the particle only travels .71cm vertically. As it is moving through the middle of the plates, the minimum vertical distance it has to travel to collide with the plate is .75cm. Thus, it doesn't collide with the plate.

I would give You detailed Explaination now...

P=Pressure, A=Area, F=Force,D=Density,V=Volume,M=Mass, g=Gravity,H=Height

P=F/A
M=D*V
W=M*G
W=D*V*g V=AH
W=D*A*H*g
W=F
P=F/A SO D*A*H**g/A
H cancel out to give
P=D*g*h!

Hope u Do understand! if not Then i would write down and Explain!! :) ;)
Thankyou :love::love:
I understood it very well (y)
