Answer:

Explanation:

Electric energy per unit volume

= (1 / 2) x ε₀ E²

Total energy

= energy per unit volume x volume

=  (1 / 2) x ε₀ E² x A d  , A is plate area

= (1 / 2A) x (ε₀ (σ/ε₀)² x A² d) [ E is electric field ]

(1 / 2A) x (ε₀ (σA/ε₀)² X d)

(1 / 2A) x (ε₀ (Q/ε₀)² X d

= (1 / 2A) x (Q²/ε₀) x d

So total energy is proportional to d , distance between plates

if  d is changed to d/2

total energy also becomes half.

(1 / 2A) x (Q²/ε₀) x d / 2

(1 / 4A) x (Q²/ε₀) x d

=

Andrei [34K]

Answer:

 13.4 x 10 raise to power -19  C

Explanation:

. The distance moved by a charge in the direction of a uniform electric field is d= 1.8 cm =0.018 m

. The uniform electric field is  E = 214 N/M

, The decrease in electrical potential energy is   d(P.E) = 51.63 x 10 raise to power -19 J

Let the magnitude of the charge of the moving particle be q

which is given by the equation

d(P.E) =qEd

51.63 x 10 power -19 = q(214)(0.018)

51.63 x 10 power -19 =3.852q

by making q the formular,

q = 13.4 x 10 power -19 C
