Two parallel plates separated by a distance of 2.0 x 10^-2 meter are charged to a potential difference of 1.0 x 10^2 volts. Points A, B, and C are located in the region between the plates. Calculate the magnitude of the electric field strength between the plates.

To calculate the magnitude of the electric field strength between the plates, you can use the formula:

Electric field strength (E) = Potential difference (V) / Distance between the plates (d)

Given:
Potential difference (V) = 1.0 x 10^2 volts
Distance between the plates (d) = 2.0 x 10^-2 meter

Substituting these values into the formula:

E = (1.0 x 10^2 volts) / (2.0 x 10^-2 meter)

To simplify the calculation, multiply the numerator and denominator by 10^2:

E = (1.0 x 10^2 volts) / (2.0 x 10^-2 meter) * (10^2 volts / 10^2 meter)

Simplifying further:

E = (1.0 x 10^2 volts * 10^2 volts) / (2.0 x 10^-2 meter * 10^2 meter)

E = 10000 volts^2 / 0.002 meter^2

E = 5.0 x 10^6 volts/meter

Therefore, the magnitude of the electric field strength between the plates is 5.0 x 10^6 volts/meter.
