The plates of a parallel-plate capacitor in vacuum are 5.00mm apart and in 2.00m2 in area. A 10.0-kV potential difference is applied across the capacitor. Compute (a) the capacitance; (b) the charge on each plate; and (c) the magnitude of the electric field between the plates, where Eg = 8.85 x 10-12 F/m and 1 N/C = 1 V/m.
