A certain substance has a dielectric constant of 2.8and a dielectric strength of 18 MV/m. If it is used as the dielectric material in a parallel plate capacitor, what minimum area should the plates of the capacitor have to obtain a capacitance of and to ensure that the capacitor will be able to withstand a potential difference of 4.0 kV?
A slab of copper of thickness is thrust into a parallelplatecapacitor of plate area and plate separation , as shown in Fig. 25-57; the slab is exactly halfway between the plates.(a) What is the capacitance after the slab is introduced? (b) If a chargeis 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 sucked in or must it be pushed in?
A coaxial cable used in a transmission line has an inner radius of 0.10 mmand an outer radius of 0.60 mm. Calculate the capacitance per meter for the cable. Assume that the space between the conductors is filled with polystyrene.
Each of the uncharged capacitors in Fig. 25-27 has a capacitance of . A potential difference of is established when the switch is closed. How many coulombs of charge then pass through meter A?

Two air-filled, parallel-plate capacitors are to be connected to a 10 V battery, first individually, then in series, and then in parallel. Inthose arrangements, the energy stored in the capacitors turns out tobe, listed least to greatest: , , , and . Of the two capacitors, what is the (a) smaller and (b) greater capacitance?
