pacitor if the area of each plate is 0.15 m² and the dielectric
is transformer oil.
11. The capacitance of a capacitor with a dielectric of air is
1200 pF. When a dielectric is inserted between the plates,
the capacitance increases to 6 nF. Of what material is the di-

and have an area of 0.08 m², and 200 V are applied across
the plates.

14. A parallel plate air capacitor has a capacitance of 5 µF. Find
the new capacitance if:
a. The distance between the plates is doubled (everything
else remains the same).
b. The area of the plates is doubled (everything else re-
mains the same as for the 5 µF level).
c. A dielectric with a relative permittivity of 20 is inserted
between the plates (everything else remains the same as
for the 5 µF level).
d. A dielectric is inserted with a relative permittivity of 4,
and the area is reduced to 1/3 and the distance to 1/4 of
their original dimensions.

lel plate capacitor of 6 nF if the area of one plate is 0.02 m² and
the dielectric is mica. Assume a linear relationship between
the dielectric strength and the thickness of the dielectric.

allel plate mica capacitor if the maximum voltage that can
be applied across the capacitor is 1200 V. Assume a linear
relationship between the breakdown strength and the thick-
ness of the dielectric.
