The figure shows three pairs of parallel plates with the sameseparation, and the electric potential of each plate. The electric fieldbetween the plates is uniform and perpendicular to the plates.(a) Rank the pairs according to the magnitude of the electric field
between the plates, greatest first.(b) For which pair is the electric field pointing rightward?(c) If an electron is released midway between the third pair of plates,
does it remain there, move rightward at constant speed, moveleftward at constant speed, accelerate rightward, or accelerateleftward?

accelerate leftward
The electric potential energy of a system of fixedpoint charges is equal to the work that must bedone by an external agent to assemble the system,bringing each charge in from an infinite distance.
