A parallel plate capacitor of plate area...

A parallel plate capacitor of plate area `A = 600 cm^(2)` and plate separation d = 2.0 mm. is connected to a d.c. source of 200 V.
What is the magnitude of the uniform electric field E between the plates?

A

`E=1.0 xx 10^(5)`V/m

B

`E = 1.0 xx10^(7)`V/m

C

`E=0.5 xx10^(5)` V/m

D

`E= 0.5 xx10^(7)`V/m

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A
` 1xx 10^(5)` V/m
Explanation : `A = 600 cm^(2) = 6xx10^(-2) m^(2)`
`d= 2 xx10^(-3)`m
V = 200 V
V = E.d [where E is electric field ]
`E = V/d`
`= 200/(2xx10^(-3))=10^(5)`V/m
