(i) Discuss what happens when a capacitor is charged with a battery and a dielectric slab is inserted in between the plates keeping the battery connected? What happens when the battery is removed? (ii) Show that the capacitance of a cylindrical capacitor depends on its geometry only.
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.
