A parallel plate capacitor with a cross section of 2 cm x 6 cm. Between the two plates is filled with a dielectric material with a dielectric constant k = 10. Determine the capacitance of the capacitor if: b. The distance between the plates is 2 cm, but one of the plates is shifted down by 0.5 cm (figure b) c. one of the plates is shifted so that the distance between the plates is 2.5 cm (figure c)
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.
