by having noble characters speak in iambic pentameter, while the lower classes spoke in plain blank verse or prose.
This is a very simplistic question, because the distinction was clearly maintained in real life and that was only carried forward into Shakespeare's plays. The most obvious difference between people of different social classes was their clothes. People were forbidden by law to dress in certain ways unless they were rich and noble enough. The costumes used in the plays showed this: the actors playing noble people wore fine clothing (the castoffs of the real nobility). The other difference between upper and lower class people is the way they talk. Shakespeare often puts stately blank verse in the mouths of the upper crust and arrhythmic prose in the mouths of the common people. But not always. Even the nobility speak in prose when they are disturbed or insane, and they speak in prose all the way through Much Ado About Nothing. Prince Hal talks in prose when talking to Ned Poins. Blank verse is saved for matters of seriousness where a more poetic approach is needed. It is not therefore a matter of social class so much as a matter of the weightiness of what is being said (and in Shakespeare the lower classes rarely have anything worthwhile to say).

To show the difference between an educated, refined noble class and coarse, crude commoners
Shakespeare did his writing between 1590 approximately and 1613.

The common man spoke a form of old English, but the nobility spoke French. For over 300 years the nobility only spoke French. Even today the queen's menu is in French and well into the 1700's an educated man knew French. If he didn't he wasn't considered educated. George Washington didn't speak or write in French, but he hid it because he needed to appear well educated as a young British officer.
In the days of Shakespeare, the average vocabulary was around 300 words for common laborers, 3,500 for educated people, and 10,000 for eloquent speakers. However, Shakespeare's vocabulary is estimated between 17,000 and 29,000 words.
