Question

A slab of copper of thickness b = 1.081 mm is thrust into a parallel-plate capacitor of C = 1.00×10-11 F of gap d = 8.0 mm, as shown in the figure; it is centered exactly halfway between the plates.

a) What is the capacitance after the slab is introduced? 

b)If a charge q = 1.00×10-6 C is maintained on the plates, what is the ratio of the stored energy before to that after the slab is inserted? 

c)How much work is done on the slab as it is inserted? 

d) Is the slab pulled in or must it be pushed in? 

pulled or pushed

The image depicts a diagram illustrating a copper section sandwiched between two different materials. The copper is labeled centrally. There are two arrows, one on the left and one on the right, indicating measurements.

- On the left side of the copper, the arrow is labeled \(b\).
- On the right side, the arrow is labeled \(d\).

This could represent the thickness or spacing in a cross-sectional view of a material setup. The copper might be a part of an electrical component or heat transfer system, where understanding the dimensions \(b\) and \(d\) is crucial for calculations or design. The copper is shown in a horizontal alignment between the other materials or components with perpendicular lines on each side denoting continuation or connection to external elements.
