Dielectric Constant Of Water

Water constitutes about 70% of earth. Some important distinguishing properties of water are high molar concentration, small dissociation constant and high dielectric constant.

Electrostatic Potential and Capacitance

An electrostatic force is a force caused by stationary electric charges /fields. The electrostatic force is caused by the transfer of electrons in conducting materials. Coulomb’s law determines the amount of force between two stationary, charged particles. The electric force is the force which acts between two stationary charges. It is also called Coulomb force.

Question

**Problem Statement:**

The capacitances are \( C_1 = 1.10 \, \mu \text{F} \) and \( C_2 = 2.70 \, \mu \text{F} \), and both capacitors are charged to a potential difference of \( V = 83.0 \, \text{V} \) but with opposite polarity as shown. Switches \( S_1 \) and \( S_2 \) are now closed. What now is the charge on capacitor \( C_1 \)?

**Diagram Explanation:**

The diagram illustrates two capacitors connected to switches \( S_1 \) and \( S_2 \).

- Capacitor \( C_1 \) is labeled with a capacitance of \( 1.10 \, \mu \text{F} \) and is charged with a positive polarity on the left side and a negative polarity on the right side.
- Capacitor \( C_2 \) is labeled with a capacitance of \( 2.70 \, \mu \text{F} \) and is charged with a positive polarity on the right side and a negative polarity on the left side.

The connection paths are as follows:

- The left terminal of \( C_1 \) is connected to point \( a \) and the right terminal to the negative side of switch \( S_2 \).
- The positive side of switch \( S_2 \) is connected to the left terminal of \( C_2 \).
- The right terminal of \( C_2 \) is connected to the negative side of switch \( S_1 \), and the positive side of \( S_1 \) is connected back to point \( a \).

The question asks for the charge on capacitor \( C_1 \) after switches \( S_1 \) and \( S_2 \) are closed.
