if the potential accross two parallel plates, separated by 2.5 cm, is 15.0 V, what is the electric field strength in volts per meter?

                      (15 volts) / (2.5 cm)

                 =    (15 volts) / (0.025 meter)

                 =    (15 / 0.025)  volts/meter

                 =     600 volts/meter   .
Formula for Electric Field strength , E =  V/d

where V = Voltage in volts, and d = distance of separation in meters.

d = 2.5 cm = 0.025 m,    V = 15 V

E = V/d =  15 / 0.025

E = 600

Electric Field Strength = 600 Volts/meter
