Two large, flat, horizontally oriented plates are parallel to each other, a distance d apart. Half-way between the two plates the electric field field has a magnitude E. If the separation of the plates is reduced to d/2 what is the magnitude of the electric field half-way between the plates

Explanation:

Let the potential difference between the plate is V . Then in the first case

Electric field E between plate

E₁ = V / d

where d is separation between plate

When the plate separation becomes d / 2

Electric field E between plate

E₂ = V / d /2

= 2 V / d =2E₁

Or twice the earlier field
