If the electric field strength between two plates is 2500 N/C and the distance between them is 0.05 m, what is the potential difference across the plates? Scenario focus: potential gradients in a distinct A-Level Physics fields context; identify the field quantity, source, direction, and unit before selecting the answer.

  1. A.125 V
  2. B.100 V
  3. C.75 V
  4. D.50 V

Model answer

What a good answer should say

  • 125 V

Explanation

Why this works

The correct answer is 125 V. This is correct for Electric fields because the stem is testing potential gradients; the chosen option keeps the field quantity, source interaction, direction, and unit consistent.

The alternatives are weaker because they mix gravitational, electric, magnetic, orbital, or transformer ideas, or they attach the right number to the wrong physical meaning.
