- Two charges are placed between the plates of a parallel plate capacitor. One charge is +q₁ and the other is q2 = +4.30 μC. The charge per unit area on each plate has a magnitude of a -7.78 x 10 C/m². The force on q; due to q2 equals the force on as due to the electric field of the parallel plate capacitor.
