Submit Answer Incorrect. Tries 3/5 Previous TriesA parallel plate capacitor has a charge Q, and a voltage difference AV. The gap is air-filled with an electric field E. 1. The capacitor is then disconnected from the circuit so that there is no path for the electrons to move from one plate to another. An insulator of dielectric constant *> 1 is then inserted to fill the entire gap. The electric field in the gap will cause the charges in the dielectric to separate slightly. This leaves an excess layer of negative charges on the top of the insulator and an excess layer of positive charges at the bottom surface of the insulator. This induced surface charge creates an induced electric field opposite the direction of the original electric field. a. The new net electric field is Ē' = Z₂ + Ēinduced. Which is true of E', the magnitude of the new net field? Choose one. E' = E, (the net electric field is the same as the original electric field) E' = E₁/x (the net electric field is smaller than the original field.) b. Which is true of the new…A parallel-plate capacitor has square plates of edge length 0.9 cm and a plate spacing of 0.029 mm. If the gap between the plates is a vacuum, what is the capacitance? F

Suppose that a piece of flat glass panel with a linear dielectric constant ɛ, = 2.5 is inserted between the plates of such a capacitor. The thickness of the glass is d = 5mm. The glass is in contact with both plates. One of the plates of the capacitor is kept at +3V, and the other plate is grounded. Treat the plates as infinitely large and thus the electric field is uniform between the plates. a) Calculate the electric field between the plates. b) Calculate the (uniform) polarization created in the glass. c) Calculate the surface bound charge density on the side of the glass that is in contact with the positive plate of the capacitor. d) Calculate the electric displacement between the plates. e) Calculate the free charge per unit area on the positive plate of the capacitor.
