Each plate of the capacitor has a cross sectional area of 0.45m2. A 5mm-thick dielectric having a permittivity of 4 is inserted between the plates. This capacitor is then placed across a 100 V source. Determine the ff: a. Capacitance of the capacitor b. The charge on the capacitor c. The magnitude of the electric field between the plates d. electric potential energy stored in a charged capacitor
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.
