Consider a capacitor with parallel plates, the area of the plates is 16.8 cm2 and they are separated by a distance d = 5.1mm, a dielectric material with dielectric constant κ = 47 has been placed in the middle of the plates, determine its capacitance. Express your answer in Farads to three significant figures.
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.
