Question:

A parallel-plate capacitor has plates with an area of 0.012 m2 and a separation of 0.88 mm. The space between the plates is filled with a dielectric whose dielectric constant is 2.0.

(a) What is the potential difference between the plates when the charge on the capacitor plates is 4.7 (C?

(b) Will your answer to part (a) increase, decrease, or stay the same if the dielectric constant is increased? Explain.

(c) Calculate the potential difference for the case where the dielectric constant is 4.0?
