Consider an evacuated cylindrical chamber of height h having rigid conducting plates at the ends and an insulating curved surface. Conducting-coated soft balls are placed on the bottom plate. A high-voltage source makes the bottom plate +V₀ and top plate -V₀. Ignore gravity and interactions between the balls.
