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.

Imagine that you’ve been invited to try out a new hoversuit , and here's how it works: Someone has setup a large flat sheet, many kilometers across, somewhere on the Earth, and they’ve charged the sheetup to a uniform charge density of 2.43 x 10^-6 C/m2. You are issued a special suit that you wear, and ithas controls on it which allow you to charge the suit up to any number of Coulombs (C), positive ornegative, that you might want. The idea is that you can control the amount of electrical repulsion (orattraction) between the suit and the charged sheet below you. What is the strength of the electric fieldin the region above the charged sheet? (The formula to use is E = 2 pi k Q/A, where k is the electricalconstant and Q/A is the charge density.)1.37E+05 N/C4.11E+04 N/C9.59E+04 N/C2.06E+05 N/C
