A small object with a mass of 3.81 mg carries a charge of 21.8 nC and is suspended by a thread between the vertical plates of a parallel-plate capacitor. The plates are separated by 5.67 cm. If the thread makes an angle of 12.7° with the vertical, what is the potential difference in volts between the plates? Round your answer to 1 decimal place.
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.
