The figure shows a variable “air gap” capacitor of the type used in manually tuned radios. Alternate plates are connected together; one group of plates is fixed in position, and the other group is capable of rotation. Consider a capacitor of n = 8 plates of alternating polarity, each plate having area A = 1.96 cm2 and separated from adjacent plates by distance d = 4.60 mm. What is the maximum capacitance of the device?

An air gap capacitor having a capacitance of 2.00μF is connected to a battery; it acquires a charge of 6.00μC. The battery is then disconnected. (Assume that, to a good approximation, the formulas for an infinite parallel plate capacitor apply.) A neutral insulating sheet with a dielectric constant of 2.5 is inserted between the plates of the charged capacitor, completely filling the gap. What is the capacitance of the capacitor now that the insulator has been added?
