Question

A large plate carries a uniform charge density σ = 8. 85 × 10-9 c/m2. a pattern showing equipotential surfaces with a 5 v potential difference would appear as:_________

Answer 1

The potential difference comes out to be

$10 \times 10 {}^{ - 3} m$

Given:

σ = 8. 85 × 10-9 c/m2

we know,

$E = \frac{σ}{2ε0}$

$E = \frac{8.85 \times 10 {}^{ - 9} }{2ε0}$

$E = \frac{v}{d}$

given the potential difference between two equipotential surface=5v

E=∆v

∆d=∆v/E

$= \frac{5 \times 8.85 \times 10 { }^{ - 12} \times 2 }{8.85 \times 10 {}^{ - 9} }$

$Δ = 10 \times 10 {}^{ - 3} m$

Thus the potential difference is

$10 \times 10 {}^{ - 3} m$
