A parallel-plate capacitor is charged to a potentialdifference of 12 V. The area on each plate is 20 cm2 and the spacing between plates is 0.15 mm. Find thef ollowing:

1. the electric field between the two plates

2. the total charge on each plate

3. the electric work done on an electron moving from thenegatively charged plate to the positively charged plate.
