The field inside a charged parallel-plate capacitor is __________. zero directed from the negative to the positive plate parallel to the plates uniform

Respuesta :

Answer:

Uniform

Directed from the negative to the positive plate

Explanation:

The field inside a charged parallel-plate capacitor is __________.

• zero

• directed from the negative to the positive plate

• parallel to the plates

• uniform

A parallel plate capacitor is made of two opposite charged plates.

As a universal rule the electric field is directed from the negative charge to the positive charge. So in the capacitor the field is directed from the negative plate to the positive plate

Also the electric field inside the capacitor is constant irrespective of the location.

[tex]E = \frac{\sigma }{ \epsilon_{0} \epsilon_{r} } \\[/tex]

Where

[tex]\sigma[/tex] is the surface charge density

[tex]\epsilon_{0}[/tex] is the permittivity of free space

[tex]\epsilon_{r}[/tex] is the relative permittivity of the material inside the plates
