Question

(a) Determine the capacitance that can be applied to a Teflon-filled parallel-plate capacitor having a plate area of 220 cm² and insulation thickness of 0.0330 mm.

(b) Determine the maximum voltage that can be applied to a Teflon-filled parallel-plate capacitor having a plate area of 220 cm² and insulation thickness of 0.0330 mm.

Expert Solution

Step 1

Given : Area of each plate of the capacitor is :

A = 220 cm²

= 220 / 10⁴ m² or 220 x 10^-4 m²

Insulation thickness or we can say separation between the plates d = 0.0330 mm

= 0.0330 x 10^-3 m
