Question

There is an electric field in the region between the two plates. The magnitude of this electric field is ed. This imposes another condition on the charge densities on the surfaces of the plates. How can this condition be expressed?

Answer 1

Answer:

it is essential that the charge on the plates are of the same magnitude, but in the opposite direction

Explanation:

The configuration of parallel plates is called a capacitor and is widely used to create constant electric fields inside.

 To obtain this field it is essential that the charge on the plates are of the same magnitude, but in the opposite direction

This is so that the fields created by each plate can be added inside and subtracted from the outside of the plates
