If you have ever tried to hang a picture or a mirror, you know it can be difficult to locate a wooden stud in which to anchor your nail or screw. A carpenters stud finder is a capacitor with its plates arranged side by side instead of facing each other as shown in Figure 20.32. When the device is moved over a stud, does the capacitance (a) increase or (b) decrease?
In Franklins time, a device for storing electric potential energy was called a Leyden jar. Today, we call that device a capacitor. Another term that is sometimes used is condenser. What ideas do these three terms bring to mind? What are the advantages and disadvantages of each?
You are working in a laboratory, using very sensitive measurement equipment. Your supervisor has explained that the equipment is also very sensitive to electrical discharge from human operators. Specification tables for the equipment indicate that an electrical discharge providing even a very small amount of energy of 250 J is enough to damage the equipment. Your supervisor wants to install an apparatus that will be used to remove the electrical charge from individuals bodies before they touch the equipment. To do this, she asks you to estimate (a) the capacitance of the human body and determine (b) the charge on the body and (c) the electric potential of the body, relative to a point infinitely far away, corresponding to the energy transfer that will damage the equipment.
(a) What is the potential difference going from point a to point b in Figure 21.47? (b) What is the potential difference going from c to b? (c) From e to g? (d) From e to d?
Would you place the plates of a parallel-plate capacitor closer together or farther apart to increase their capacitance?
Calculate the equivalent capacitance between points a and b in Figure P26.77. Notice that this system is not a simple series or parallel combination. Suggestion: Assume a potential difference v between [joints a and b. Write expressions for vab in terms of the charges and capacitances for the various possible pathways from a to b and require conservation of charge for those capacitor plates that are connected to each other.
In different experimental trials, an electron, a proton, or a doubly charged oxygen atom (O--), is fired within a vacuum tube. The particle's trajectory carries it through a point where the electric potential is 40.0 V and then through a point at a different potential. Rank each of the following cases according to the change in kinetic energy of the particle over this part of its flight from the largest increase to the largest decrease in kinetic energy. In your ranking, display any cases of equality, (a) An electron moves from 40.0 V to 60.0 V. (b) An electron moves front 40.0 V to 20.0 V. (c) A proton moves from 40.0 V to 20.0 V'. (d) A proton moves from 40.0 V to 10.0 V. (e) An O-- ion mines from 40.0 V to 60.0 V.
You are working at an electronics fabrication shop. Your current project is on the team producing capacitors for the timer circuit that delays the closing of an elevator door. According to its design specification, the timer circuit is to have a capacitance of 32.0 F between two points A and B. As sour capacitors come off the assembly line, you find that they have a variation of 5.00% from this value. After a team meeting to evaluate this situation, the team decides that capacitances in the range 32.0 0.5 F are acceptable and do not need modification. For capacitances outside this range, the director does not wish to discard the capacitors, but rather to add extra capacitors in series or parallel with the main capacitor to bring the total equivalent capacitance to the exact design value of 32.0 F. You are put in charge of procuring the extra capacitors. What range of capacitances for these extra capacitors do you need to cover the entire range of variation of 5.00%? All capacitances can be measured to three significant figures.
a. If capacitor B in Figure 27.8 has a charge of 0.5 nC, what is the potential difference between its plates and how much potential energy does it store? b. If capacitor A in Figure 27.8 stores the same amount of potential energy found in part (a), what is the magnitude of the excess charge on its plates? What is the potential difference between its plates? Use the capacitance CA found in Concept Exercise 27.2.
What is the relationship between voltage and energy? Mote precisely, what is the relationship between potential difference and electric potential energy?
a parallel-plate capacitor with area 0.200 m2 and plate separation of 3.00 mm is connected to a 6.00-V battery. (a) What is the capacitance? (b) How much charge is stored on the plates?

Earth can be considered as a spherical capacitor with two plates, where the negative plate is the surface of Earth and the positive plate is the bottom of the ionosphere, which is located at an altitude of approximately 70 km. The potential difference between Earth’s surface and the ionosphere is about 350,000 V. (a) Calculate the capacitance of this system, (b) Find the total charge on this capacitor, (c) Find the energy stored in this system.
