Question

The figure between shows two parallel plates. Assume they are infinite in area (this way we can neglect edge effects). The plate on the left is at a potential of +36V and the plate on the right is at a potential of OV. The plates are a stance 24cm apart and the dashed lines are spaced equally 6cm apart. Evaluate the following statements appropriately: greater than: The electric potential at point D is ___ the electric potential at point F. equal to: The electric potential at point B is ___ the electric potential at point E. greater than: The electric potential energy of a proton at point A is ___ the electric potential energy of an proton at point B. greater than: The electric potential energy of an electron at point B is ___ the electric potential energy of an electron at point A.

Explanation / Answer

the answers are as below

VD = 36 * 3 / 4 = 27 V

VB = 36 / 2 = 18 V are answers
