Two conducting plates M and N, each having large surface area A (on one side), are placed parallel to each other in figure. The plate M is given charge `Q_1` and N, charge `Q_2(ltQ_1)`. Then

A

electric field at point A is `(Q_1-Q_2)//2Aepsilon_0` toward right.

B

electric field at point B is `(Q_1-Q_2)//2Aepsilon_0` toward right.

C

electric potential of N is greater than M.

D

all of the above

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A, B
a.,b.
Electric field lines will be from `M` to `N`, so potential of `N` will be less than that of `M`.
