उत्तर
The given system of the capacitor will behave as two capacitors connected in series.
Let the capacitances be C1 and C2.
Now,
`C_1 = (∈_0Ak_1)/d_1` and `C_2 = (∈_0Ak_2)/d_2`
Thus, the net capacitance is given by
`C = (C_1C_2)/(C_1+C_2)`
= `((∈_0Ak_1)/d_1 xx (∈_0Ak_2)/d_2)/((∈_0Ak_1)/d_1 +(∈_0Ak_2)/d_2)`
= `(∈_0A(k_1+k_2))/(k_1d_2+k_2d_1)`
= `((8.85 xx 10^-12) xx (10^-2) xx 24) / ((6 xx 4 xx 10^-3 + 4 xx 6 xx 10^-3)) = 4.425 xx 10^-11 C`
= 44.25 pF

Read the following paragraph and answer the questions.
| A capacitor is a system of two conductors separated by an insulator. The two conductors have equal and opposite charges with a potential difference between them. The capacitance of a capacitor depends on the geometrical configuration (shape, size and separation) of the system and also on the nature of the insulator separating the two conductors. They are used to store charges. Like resistors, capacitors can be arranged in series or parallel or a combination of both to obtain the desired value of capacitance. |
