(a) How much charge can be placed on a capacitor with air between the plates before it breaks down if the area of each plate is 2.00 cm2? (Assume air has a dielectric strength of 3.00 x 106 V/m and dielectric constant of 1.00.) nC (b) Find the maximum charge if polystyrene is used between the plates instead of air. (Assume polystyrene has a dielectric strength of 24.0 x 106 V/m and dielectric constant of 2.56.) nC Need Help?
