Parallel Plates Electric Potential Difference using an Integral

The video tutorial explains the concept of electric fields between two charged plates, with the top plate being positive and the bottom negative. It derives the equation for electric potential difference using the dot product and cosine theta, emphasizing the uniformity of the electric field. The tutorial also discusses the significance of the negative sign in the electric potential equation, indicating the direction of decreasing potential. The session concludes with a brief discussion on how charges move through potential differences.
