Answer:
<em> -18896.49 V/m</em>
<em></em>
Explanation:
Distance between the two plates = 10 cm = 10 x m = 0.1 m
Also, one of the plates is taken as<em> zero volt.</em>
a. The potential strength between the zero volt plate, and 7.05 cm (0.0705 m) away is 393 V
b. The potential strength between the other plate, and 2.95 cm (0.0295 m) away is 393 V
<em>Potential field strength = -dV/dx</em>
where dV is voltage difference between these points,
dx is the difference in distance between these points
For the first case above,
potential field strength = -393/0.0705 = -5574.46 V/m
For the second case ,
potential field strength = -393/0.0295 = -13322.03 V/m
Magnitude of the field strength across the plates will be
-5574.46 + (-13322.03) = -5574.46 + 13322.03 =<em> -18896.49 V/m</em>
