Two protons $A$ and $B$ are placed in the space between the plates of a parallel plate capacitor charged up to $V$ volts (see figure). If the forces on the protons are $F_A$ and $F_B$ respectively,then:

  • A
    $F_A > F_B$
  • B
    $F_A < F_B$
  • C
    $F_A = F_B$
  • D
    Nothing can be said
