Question:

Potential difference between parallel plate capacitors?

0 LIKES UnLike

Based on the electric field in parallel plate capacitor and the value of the potential difference (V= 1.887V) between the two plates, does the voltage increase linearly, quadratically or 1/X^2 (where X is the distance from one plate)?

The potential difference between the midpoint and one of the plates is 0.962V, what does this indicate? What does the equation: E = - V/ d indicate?

E = electric field

V= potential difference

d= distance

  1. you never finished the sentence "does the voltage increase linearly" with respect to what?

    With respect to the separation between the plates, it is inversely proportional, 1/d.
