A capacitor is constructed out of two circular plates, each of radius 6 cm. The plates are separated by 6.6 mm. The space between the plates is filled with a dielectric of relative permittivity 1.3. Calculate the capacitance, neglecting edge effects, in units of 10-12 F (that is, picofarads). Use that the permittivity of free space is 8.85 x 10-12 F/m.
