As we know that beam has one longer Dimension and other one shorter. so, in case of beam stresses can be induced in one direction because the shorter direction is too short that effect of stress is negligible. But in case of plate, induction of stresses is in two direction because plate may be squareor rectangular.

What is electrical charge on plate that causes the beam to bend toward that plate?

The electrical charge on the plate that causes the beam to bend toward it is positive. When a charged particle beam, such as electrons (which have a negative charge), passes near a positively charged plate, the electrostatic attraction between the opposite charges causes the beam to curve toward the plate. This bending occurs due to the force exerted by the electric field generated by the charged plate on the charged particles in the beam.
