Quick questions on Charged particles in uniform fields: WACE Year 12 Physics Unit 3

2short Q&A pairs drawn directly from our worked dot-point answer. For full context and worked exam questions, read the parent dot-point page.

What are the uniform field between plates?
Show answer
Two oppositely charged parallel plates a distance dd apart with potential difference VV produce a uniform field of strength
What is energy gained across a potential difference?
Show answer
When a charge moves through a potential difference VV, the work done on it is W=qVW=qV, which becomes kinetic energy if it starts from rest:
