A 100 pF, 100 kV concentric spherical capacitor with gas insulation with dielectric constant Ɛ=8,854 pF/m and puncture resistance Ed=250 kV/cm is desired to be made. Calculate the radii of the inner and outer sphere.
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.
