The intensity of the electric field at a point between the plates of a charged parallel plate capacitor:

  • A
    Is directly proportional to the distance between the plates.
  • B
    Is inversely proportional to the distance between the plates.
  • C
    Is inversely proportional to the square of the distance between the plates.
  • D
    Does not depend upon the distance between the plates.
