Answer:
The magnitude of the electric field between the plates is half its initial value.
Explanation:
We know the electric field E = V/d where V = voltage applied and d = separation between plates.
Since V is constant and V = Ed,
So, E₁d₁ = E₂d₂ where E₁ = initial electric field at separation d₁, d₁ = initial separation of plates, E₂ = final electric field at separation d₂ and d₂ = final separation of plates.
So, E₂ = E₁d₁/d₂
Now, the distance between the plates is twice their original separation. Thus, d₂ = 2d₁
So, E₂ = E₁d₁/2d₁ = E₁/2
So, E₂ = E₁/2
Thus, the magnitude of the electric field between the plates is half its initial value.
That statement is false because yes Jupiter and Saturn are large, however, planets like Uranus and Neptune are quite small if not smaller than some of the inner planets.
