A 8-volt battery is applied across a certain parallel-plate capacitor. If the capacitor was able to store 1.59 joules, determine the distance (measured in picometers) between the two plates of the capacitor. Both the plates have an area of 0.85 square meters. Express your answers accurate to four decimal places, whenever applicable. Assume the dielectric used for the capacitor has relative permittivity 1.83. Use the permittivity of free space to be 8.854 × 10-12 F/m.
