Chapter 25, Problem 7P
If an uncharged parallel-plate capacitor (capacitance C) is connected to a battery, one plate becomes negatively charged as electrons move to the plate face (area A). In Fig. 25-26, the depth dfrom which the electrons come in the plate in a particular capacitor is plotted against a range of values for the potential difference Vof the battery. The density of

It is the gap between the conductors in a capacitor consisting of two concentric spherical conductors. The radius of the inner conductor is 10 cm and the capacitance of the capacitor is 116 pF. What is the radius of the outer conductive sphere?
Between the inner part of the cell and the outer solution there is a potential difference
(membrane resting potential) AU = 90 mV. Assuming that the electric field inside
the membrane is uniform, and considering the membrane thickness d = 18 nm, find
this electric field.
A capacitor has its outer conducting plate and inner conducting plate separated by Teflon with a dielectric constant of 2.1. If the outer and inner radii of the conducting plates are 5mm and 3mm, respectively and the capacitor is 1cm long, its capacitance is how many pF? Round off to the nearest tenth digit.
