The dielectric to be used in a parallel-plate capacitor has a dielectric constant of 3.70 and a dielectric strength of 1.85x107 V/m. The capacitor is to have a capacitance of 1.50×10-9 F and must be able to withstand a maximum potential difference of 5000 V. Part A What is the minimum area the plates of the capacitor may have? Use 8.854x10-12 F/m for the permittivity of free space.
