Consider a solid cylindrical conductor of inner conductor radius 61 cm and outer conductor radius 84 cm with charge Q that is coaxial with a cylindrical shell of negligible thickness. Find the capacitance, in nF, of this cylindrical capacitor if its length is 74 m and the insulator used is mica (εr = 6).
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.
