Problem 4: As part of a science fair project you want to construct several capacitors with different dielectrics inside. The conducting plates will be made from aluminum (with surface area A). The first capacitor uses a plane of glass with thickness d, surface area A, and dielectric constant κ (Figure 1). It has capacitance Cglass. The second uses a piece of plastic with thickness d/2, surface area A, and dielectric constant 1.5κ (Figure 2). It has capacitance Cplastic. The third one uses both glass and plastic, and is shown in Figure 3. This configuration has capacitance Ctotal. Part (a) Enter an expression for the theoretical capacitance, Cglass, of the setup using only glass (Figure 1) in terms of A, d, κ, and ε0. Part (b) Now enter an expression for the capacitance using only plastic, Cplastic, in terms of the capacitance using only glass, Cglass.

Item 8 Learning Goal: To review the meaning of capacitance and ways of changing the capacitance of a parallel-plate capacitor. Capacitance is one of the central concepts in electrostatics. Understanding its meaning and the difference between its definition and the ways of calculating capacitance can be challenging at first. This tutorial is meant to help you become more comfortable with capacitance. Recall the fundamental formula for capacitance: C = Q/AVC, where C is the capacitance in farads, Q is the charge stored on the plates in coulombs, and AVC is the potential difference (or voltage) between the plates. In the following problems it may help to keep in mind that the voltage is related to the strength of the electric field E and the distance between the plates, d, by AVc = Ed.
