Two parallel, infinite, nonconducting plates are 11.5 cm apart and have charge distributions of +3.1 µC/m2 and -3.1 µC/m2.
I) What is the force on an electron in the space between the plates? (The charge of an electron is 1.602 10-19 C.)
a) magnitude?
b) direction>> choose 1, 2 or 3
1) The force points toward the positive plate?
2) The force points toward the negative plate?
3) The magnitude is zero?
II) What is the force on an electron located outside the two plates near the surface of one of the two plates?
a) magnitude
b) direction>> choose 1, 2 or 3
1) The force points toward the positive plate?
2) The force points toward the negative plate?
3) The magnitude is zero?
