Question

(17%) Problem 4: Two parallel conducting plates are separated by 10.2 cm, and one of then is taken to be at a potential of zero volts 50% Part (a) what is the electric field strength between them in V/m. if the potential 7.2 cm from the zero volt plate is 455 V?

Explanation / Answer

Part (a):

here, d = 7.2 cm = 0.072 m

Electric field strength, E = (Change in Potential) / distance = 455 / 0.072 = 6319.4 V/m

Part (b):

Voltage between the plates, V = E*(distance between the plates) = 6319.4*0.102 = 644.6 V
