Calculate the electric field intensity between two plates of potential difference 6.5V when separated by a distance of 35cm.
18.57NC\(^{-1}\)
53.06N C\(^{-1}\)
2.28NC\(^{-1}\)
0.80NC\(^{-1}\)

Explanation

Electric Field Intensity (E) = \(\frac{v}{d}\)

= \(\frac{\text{potential difference}}{\text{distance}}\)

= \(\frac{6.5v}{35cm}\)

= \(\frac{6.5}{35 \times 10^{- 2}}\)

= 18.57NC\(^{-1}\)
