Two metal plates (A, B) are kept horizontally with separation of (12π)\left(\dfrac{12}{\pi}\right) cm, with plate A on the top. An atomizer jet sprays oil (density 1.5 g/cm31.5\ \mathrm{g/cm^3}) droplets of radius 1 mm horizontally. All oil droplets carry a charge 5 nC. The potentials VAV_A and VBV_B are required on plates A and B respectively in order to ensure the droplets do not descend. The values of VAV_A and VBV_B are . (Neglect the air resistance to the droplets and take g=10 m/s2g = 10\ \mathrm{m/s^2})
