Two identical thin metal plates has charge q _ 1 and q _ 2...
Two identical thin metal plates has charge and respectively such that . The plates were brought close to each other to form a parallel plate capacitor of capacitance . The potential difference between them is :
Options
- A\dfrac{\left({q}_{1} + {q}_{2}\right)}{C}
- B\dfrac{\left({q}_{1} - {q}_{2}\right)}{C}
- C\dfrac{\left({q}_{1} - {q}_{2}\right)}{2C}
- D\dfrac{2\left({q}_{1} - {q}_{2}\right)}{C}
Correct answer
C. \dfrac{\left({q}_{1} - {q}_{2}\right)}{2C}
Step-by-step solution
On bringing the charged metal plates closer, electric field in the intervening space is
Where
Intensity of field due plate charged by is \left|\overset{\to}{{E}_{1}}\right| = \dfrac{{\sigma}_{1}}{2{ε}_{0}} = \dfrac{{q}_{1}}{2{ε}_{0}A}{q}_{2} (directed leftwards)
So, Net field is given byFor parallel plate capacitor
From above two equations
Relation between intensity of field \left(E\right) between the plates is
From equation \left(3\right)
V = \dfrac{\left({q}_{1} - {q}_{2}\right)}{2C}
