In the given figure, the value of the electric field between the plates is:
Correct answer: C. 6000 N/C from A to B
- A. 2.4 N/C from A to B
- B. 2.4 N/C from B to A
- C. 6000 N/C from A to B
- D. 6000 N/C from B to A
Explanation
To calculate the electric field between the plates A and B, we can use the formula:Electric field (E) = Voltage (V) / Distance between plates (d)In this case, the voltage (V) is given as 120 V and the distance between the plates (d) is given as 2 cm. However, it is usually more convenient to work with SI units, so we need to convert the distance from centimeters to meters.Converting 2 cm to meters: 2 cm * (1 meter / 100 centimeters) = 0.02 metersNow we can calculate the electric field:E = 120 V / 0.02 m = 6000 V/mTherefore, the value of the electric field between the plates A and B is 6000 V/m.

About Current Electricity
Steady current relates charge flow to potential difference, resistance and resistivity, including how temperature changes a conductor's resistance. Sources with internal resistance have terminal voltage below their emf when delivering current, and maximum power output occurs under a specific load condition rather than at zero resistance.
