(i) If two similar large plates, each of area A having surface charge densities +a and -a are separated by a distance d in air, find the expressions for (a) field at points between the two plates and on outer side of the plates. Specify the direction of the field in each case. (b) the potential difference between the plates. (c) the capacitance of the capacitor so formed. (ii) Two metallic spheres of radii R and 2R are charged so that both of these have same surface charge density a. If they are connected to each other with a conducting wire, in which direction will the charge flow and why?
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.
