Question

The voltage between two parallel plates separated by a distance of 3. 0 cm is 120 v. The electric field between the plates is?

Answer 1

The electric field between plates is 4000V/m.

An electric field (sometimes E-field) is the physical field that surrounds electrically charged particles and exerts force on all other charged particles in the field, either attracting or repelling them. It also refers to the physical field for a system of charged particles.

The value of the electric field has dimensions of force per unit charge. In the metre-kilogram-second and SI systems, the appropriate units are newtons per coulomb, equivalent to volts per metre.

The voltage between points A and B is

V=E.d

E =V/d  (uniform E- field only)  

where  d is the distance from A to B, or the distance between the plates.

Given:

distance d = 3 cm

voltage V = 120 V

Electric field E = V/d

                     E = 120 V / 3cm

                     E = 40 V / 1 cm               [ 1 cm = 1/100 m ]

                    E = 4000 V/m.
