10) A parallel plate capacitor with air between its plates is charged by connecting it to a battery. The capacitor is disconnected from the battery without losing charge. A voltmeter connected between the plates of the capacitor shows 45 V. The same voltmeter shows 11.5 V when a dielectric that completely fills the volume is placed between the plates. What does the voltmeter show in Volts when the dielectric is partially removed from between the plates and only fills one fourth of the volume in between? a) V = 1,83 x 101 b) V = 2,28 x 101 c) V = 2,60 × 10' d) V = 2,84 x 101 e) V = 3,03 x 101

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.
