You decide to make another capacitor starting with two parallel conducting plates, of area A. Then you place another conductor in the middle which is a thick plate of thickness d. The top of the thick plate is a distance a from the top plate and the bottom of the thick plate is a distance b from the bottom plate. What is the capacitance of your capacitor in terms of A, a, b, d, and ε0? (Hint: an illustration is important)
