A potential difference of 1.4 x 10 3 V is applied to a pair of parallel plates, separated by a distance of 4.0 mm. Find the charge density on each plate. The results of all problems must be expressed in SI units (and some other, if requested). I know Points will be deducted if the result does not indicate its unit of measure.
