In a parallel plate capacitor the potential difference of 100 V is manitianed between the plates. If distance between the plates be 5mm, what will be the electric field at points A and B ?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Electric field at both paints A and B is same having a value
`E = V/d = (100 V)/(5mm) = (100 V)/(5 xx 10^(-3)m) = 2 xx 10^4 NC^(-1)`
