A solid conducting sphere with a 11 cm radius sits inside a hollow conducting sphere with a 13 cm inside radius and a 15 cm outside radius. The gap between the conductors is filled with distilled water. If the two conductors are connected across a 12 V battery, then what is the charge on the two conductors in this configuration. The dielectric constant for distilled water is 80.
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.
