Question:

A nervous physicist worries that the two metal shelves of his wood frame bookcase might obtain a high voltage if charged by static electricity, perhaps produced by friction. 

(a) What is the capacitance of the empty shelves if they have area 1.00 x 102 m2 and are 0.200 m apart? 

(b) What is the voltage between them if opposite charges of magnitude 2.00 nC are placed on them? 

(c) To show that this voltage poses a small hazard, calculate the energy stored.
