A parallel – plate air capacitor has plates 1.50m2 in area, spaced 0.800 mm apart. It is charged to 1200 – V potential difference. What energy does it contain? What energy would it contain if it were filled with a dielectric of relative permittivity 3.0 and then charged? What energy would it contain if it were first charged as an air capacitor and then filled with this dielectric?
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.
