A capacitor has parallel plates that have an area of 1.09 cm2 and are 1.09 mm apart. There is a vacuum between the plates, and the electric field magnitude is 1.02 106 N/C. (a) Find the potential across the plates
Added by Matthew M.
Step 1
The formula is: \[ V = E \cdot d \] where: - \( V \) is the potential difference (voltage) across the plates, - \( E \) is the electric field magnitude, - \( d \) is the distance between the plates. Show more…
