Answer:
The electric field strength between the plates can be increased by decreasing the length of each side of the plates.
Explanation:
The electric field strength is given by;
[tex]E = \frac{V}{d}[/tex]
where;
V is the electric potential of the two opposite charges
d is the distance between the two parallel plates
[tex]E =\frac{V}{d} = \frac{\sigma}{\epsilon _o} \\\\(\sigma = \frac{Q}{A} )\\\\E = \frac{Q}{A\epsilon_o} \\\\E = \frac{Q}{L^2\epsilon_o}[/tex]
Where;
ε₀ is permittivity of free space
L is the length of each side of the plates
From the equation above, the electric field strength can be increased by decreasing the length of each side of the plates.
Therefore, decreasing the length of each side of the plates, could be made to increase the strength of the electric field between the plates
