A flat capacitor, consisting of two plates separated by 1 mm of empty space, is connected to a voltage generator that supplies 20 V, as indicated in the figure. Next, the generator comes disconnected from the capacitor (the two switches in the figure are opened) and a sheet of material conductor, with a base having the same area as the plates and 0.4 mm thick, is inserted into the space condenser vacuum conduttore C V Calculate the potential difference across the capacitor in the final configuration.
