Two parallel conducting plates are separated by 10cm, and one of them is taken to be at zero volts.
What is the electric field strength between them, if the potential 8.00cm from the zero volt plate (2.00cm from the other) is 450V?

How does one of the plates being taken as zero volts affect things?

Would the following working help?

Identify the unknown:

The electric field strength.

List the knowns:

Distance from the zero volt plate: Potential at this distance:

Set up the problem:

Potential difference between two uniform metal plates:
