Figure 1 _ Two identical plates of surface area A are separated by a distance d. 
Two plates witn a large surface area A are separated by a distance d where A d2. The plate on the lett has a charge +Q placed on it while the plate on the right has a charge —Q. When 
writing expressions in this problem use co, not Coulomb's constant 
part 1) 
Write an expression to describe the magnitude ot the electric field nalfivay between the plates. 
part 2) 
Write an expression tor the potential beüeen the plates. 
part 3) 
use this expression to write an expression tor the capacitance ottnese plates.
