Two uniformly large parallel thin plates having charge densities + σ and – σ are kept in the X-Z plane at a distance ‘d’ apart. Sketch an equipotential surface due to electric field between the plates. If a particle of mass m and charge q’ remains stationary between the plates, what is the magnitude and direction of this field?
