The potential difference between the plates of an ideal air-filled parallel-plate capacitor with a plate separation of 6.0 cm is 60 V.What is the strength of the electric field between the plates of this capacitor?

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The electric field strength between the plates of a parallel-plate capacitor is given by E = V/d, where V is the potential difference between the plates and d is the distance between the plates. Plugging in the given values, we get:
E = 60 V / 0.06 m = 1000 V/m
Therefore, the strength of the electric field between the plates is 1000 V/m, which is option C.
