A capacitor is constructed from two conductive metal plates of size 20 centimetres (cm) x 40 cm, which are spaced 6 millimetres (mm) apart from each other. It uses dry air as its dielectric material. Calculate the capacitance of the capacitor.
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.
