Parallel Plates Uniform Electric Field

The video explains the electric fields around infinitely large thin planes of positive and negative charges. It shows how these fields look and behave when the planes are parallel. Outside the planes, the fields cancel each other out due to equal magnitude and opposite direction. Between the planes, the fields add up, doubling the field strength compared to a single plane.

What color represents the electric field around a thin plane of positive charges?

• Green

• Blue

• Red

• Yellow

How do electric fields behave when two infinitely large thin planes of charge are parallel?

• They remain unchanged.

• They cancel each other out completely.

• They combine due to their vector nature.

• They repel each other.

What happens to the electric fields outside the planes of charge?

• They double in magnitude.

• They become zero.

• They remain the same.

• They change direction.

What is the result of the electric fields between two parallel planes of charge?

• They cancel out.

• They become half.

• They remain unchanged.

• They double in magnitude.

Why do electric fields cancel out outside the planes of charge?

• Because they are different in magnitude.

• Because they are equal in magnitude and opposite in direction.

• Because they are perpendicular.

• Because they are in the same direction.
