A parallel plate capacitor initially charged with a battery that can produce a potential difference of 100 V is disconnected after being charged. A dielectric material with a dielectric constant of 4.6 and a thickness of 6 mm is placed symmetrically in the middle of the plates of this capacitor, which has a plate area of 0.18 m^2 and a plate separation of 1.8 cm. What is the amount of work done to insert the dielectric material? A)-8,8x10^-8 Joule B)3,4x10^-8 Joule C)7,2x10^-10 Joule D)-1,6x10^-7 Joule
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.
