Question

1. If the electric field at a point in space has a manitude of300 volts/meter, about how far apart are the equipopoetnialsurfaces that differ by 10 volts? 2. Two paraellel conducting plates are separated by .60cm. Ifthe potenital difference between the plates is 90V, what is themagnitude of the electric vector midway between the plates? 1.

Explanation / Answer

Electric field E = 300 V / m

Potential difference V = 10 volts

Separation d= V / E

                   = 0.033 m

(2). Separation d = 0.6 cm = 0.006 m

Potential difference V = 90 V

Electric field E = V / d

                        = 15000 V /m
