The voltage between the two plates will induce an electric field between them. Suppose you wanted the object to remain at rest halfway between the two plates. In what direction should the electric field be (upward, downward, to the right, or to the left? Explain.

Respuesta :

Answer:Upward

Explanation:

To hang the object in the halfway we need to direct the Electric field toward upward direction

Suppose object has mass m and charge q

If electric field is Pointing towards upward direction then the force experienced by charged particle is in the upward direction which will be balanced by weight of particle(pointing downward) such that

qE=mg

where q=charge of particle

E=Electric field

m=mass of particle

g=acceleration due to gravity
