A 2.0 μF parallel-plate air-filled capacitor is connected across a 10 V battery. (a) Determine the charge on the capacitor and the energy stored in the capacitor. (b) An identical 2.0 μF parallel-plate air-filled capacitor is connected across a 5 V battery, and a dielectric slab with dielectric constant κ is inserted between the plates of the capacitor, completely filling the region between the plates, while the battery remains connected. The energy stored in this capacitor is four times that...
A parallel-plate vacuum capacitor is connected to a battery and charged until the stored electric energy is U. The
battery is removed, and then a dielectric material with dielectric

An isolated parallel-plate capacitor (not connected to a battery) has a charge of Q = 1.7×10−5C. The separation between the plates initially is d = 1.2 mm, and for this separation the capacitance is 3.1×10−11F. Calculate the work that must be done to pull the plates apart until their separation becomes 2.6 mm, if the charge on the plates remains constant. The capacitor plates are in a vacuum. Express your answer using two significant figures. (unit in J)
A parallel plate capacitor with plate separation of 1 millimeter is connected to a battery of 10 volts. If the region between the plates is free space (epsilon_r = 1), calculate the electric field between the plates in Volts/meter, and the electric flux density between the plates in Coulombs/m^2. Suppose a dielectric with dielectric constant epsilon_r = 5 is inserted between the plates. With the battery still connected, calculate the electric field and the electric flux density. Which field has...
An empty parallel plate capacitor is connected to a battery that maintains a constant potential difference between the plates. With the battery connected, a dielectric is then inserted between the plates. Does the energy stored by the capacitor increase, decrease or remain the same when the dielectric is inserted? remain the same decrease increase
2.(A) A capacitor consisting of two parallel plates with direct between them is connected to a battery. As a result, the plates become charged. The battery is then disconnected with the lates insulated so no charge can escape, and the dielectric is then removed. How would each of the following change? The charge on the plates. Increase / Decrease / Remains the same The potential drop across the plates. Increase / Decrease / Remains the same The capacitance of the...

A parallel-plate capacitor is charged by being connected to a battery and is kept connected to the battery. The separation between the plates is then doubled. How does the electric field, charge and total energy change? Electric field is halved, charge is doubled, total energy is doubled Electric field is doubled, charge is halved, total energy is doubled Electric field is doubled, charge is halved, total energy is halved Electric field is halved, charge is halved, total energy is halved
