Given, diameter of circular plate ( d ) = 13.2 cm =
mass of the plastic bead ( m ) = 1.5 g =
charge of the plastic bead ( q ) = -4.4 nC =
Assume, acceleration due to gravity ( g ) =
(a) The bead is suspended due to electric field force against the force of grvity.
As the given charge is negative. So, the force due to electric field will be opposite to the direction of electric field.
The force due to gravity will be downwards. So, the force due to electric field will be upward.
Therefore, direction of electric field will be downward.
For the direction to be downward, the upper plate must be positive charged and the lower plate negative charged.
So, the upper plate will be positively charged.
(b) The electric filed between the opposite charged plates of capacitor,
......( 1 )
where is the surface charge density of the plates
is the permittivity of free space =
Balancing the force on the bead,
putting value in equation ( 1 ),
We know,
where Q is the charge on the surface
A is the area of the surface
Here, we have the circular surface.
