प्रश्न
In a parallel plate capacitor with air between the plates, each plate has an area of 6 × 10−3m2 and the separation between the plates is 3 mm.
- Calculate the capacitance of the capacitor.
- If this capacitor is connected to 100 V supply, what would be the charge on each plate?
- How would charge on the plates be affected, if a 3 mm thick mica sheet of k = 6 is inserted between the plates while the voltage supply remains connected?

उत्तर
Here, A = 6 × 10–3m2, d = 3 mm = 3 × 10–3m
- Capacitance, C = `(∈_0A)/d`
= `((8.85 xx 10^-12 xx 6 xx 10^-3))/(3 xx 10^-3)`
= 17.7 × 10–12F - Charge, Q = CV
= 17.7 × 10–12 × 100
= 17.7 × 10–10C - New charge Q' = KQ
= 6 × 17.7 × 10–10
= 1.062 × 10–8C

Considering the case of a parallel plate capacitor being charged, show how one is required to generalize Ampere's circuital law to include the term due to displacement current.
A parallel plate capacitor is to be designed with a voltage rating 1 kV, using a material of dielectric constant 3 and dielectric strength about 107 Vm−1. (Dielectric strength is the maximum electric field a material can tolerate without breakdown, i.e., without starting to conduct electricity through partial ionisation.) For safety, we should like the field never to exceed, say 10% of the dielectric strength. What minimum area of the plates is required to have a capacitance of 50 pF?
