Measurement of Electric Field between Parallel plates

Measurement of Electric Field between Parallel platesCount Alessandro VoltaBorn in Como Italy He consider by his family by retarded he did not speak until four yrs. Old. Age of 18 he begin interest study in electricity Como high school and it was there invented the electrophorus in 1775.He also best in invented the battery in 1880Water could be the decomposed by an electric current , thereby laying the foundations for electrochemistry for this work he was given the tittle of Count and awarded the legion of honour. The unit of electric potential, the volt, is named after him.The positive charge is accelerated by the electric force acting on it and it gains kinetic energy as it moves towards the negatives plate.The kinetic energy gained is given by :EK=q V where :V energy is gaineq is supplied by battery which create electricity field between the platesThe kinetic gained is also given by Fd:HenceFd= q VThereforF= V q dButF = EqHenceE= V d this calculating the electric field between a pair of opposite charge plates. -1The unit of electric field is thus the Vm
