A flat capacitor in the vacuum has a capacity of 1nF. The load on each board is 1μC. Determine: a) The potential difference between the plates, b) If the load is kept constant, what will be the potential difference between the plates if we double the distance between them? c) What work is needed to double the distance between these plates?
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.
