Two parallel plates separated by 2 mm have a potential difference of 100 V across them. What is the electric field strength in the uniform region between the plates?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: B. 50.000 V/m

  1. Step 1: Electric field in a uniform parallel plate capacitor: . Step 2. V and m. Step 3. V/m. Answer: 50.000 V/m. Why not the others: V/m.
