Homework Statement
5. Two large, parallel conducting plates carrying opposite charges of equal magnitude are separated by 2.20 cm.
a) If the surface charge density for each plate has a magnitude of 47.0 nCm^-2, what is the magnitude of the electric field intensity in the region between the plates?
b) What is the potential difference between the two plates? (2 marks)
Homework Equations
The Attempt at a Solution
The wording here confuses me a bit, is Electric field intensity something different to the electric field?
I've done E=4.7*10^-9/8.85E-12 =530.8N/C but is this the field intensity? Part b I am not sure about, I need some help for it to.
Thanks
