In a lab where you construct a capacitor made of two brass plates with a dielectric between them, if the dielectric does not completely fill the area in between the brass plates, what would be the expected capacitance? Derive an expression for the deliectric constant in terms of the measured capacticance, the area covered by the dielectric, and the remaining area not covered by the dielectric.
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.
