Problem 11-33 Electric potential - Negative
The figure shows two parallel, oppositely charged, plates with a potential difference of \(6.0\; V\) between them. The plates are separated by \(1.1\; cm.\) If we define the potential of the negative plate to be zero,
(a) what is the potential of the positive plate?
(b) what is the potential half way between the plates?
(c) what is the potential at point \(A,\) which is \(0.28\; cm\) above the positive plate?
No. All electrical properties are defined with respect to positive charges.
