Force between Parallel Plate Capacitors Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Force = (Charge^2)/(2*Parallel Plate Capacitance*Distance between Two Masses)
F = (q^2)/(2*C_∥*r)
This formula uses 4 Variables

Variables Used

Force - (Measured in Newton) - Force is any interaction that, when unopposed, will change the motion of an object. In other words, a force can cause an object with mass to change its velocity.
Charge - (Measured in Coulomb) - A Charge is the fundamental property of forms of matter that exhibit electrostatic attraction or repulsion in the presence of other matter.
Parallel Plate Capacitance - (Measured in Farad) - Parallel Plate Capacitance is the ratio of the amount of electric charge stored on a conductor to a difference in electric potential for the configuration where charges reside in two parallel plates.
Distance between Two Masses - (Measured in Meter) - Distance between two masses is the separation of two masses located in space by a definite distance.
