Consider the Earth and a cloud layer 800 m above the planet to be the plates of
Question:
(a) If the cloud layer has an area of 1.0 km2 = 1.0 x 106 m2, what is the capacitance?
(b) If an electric field strength greater than 3.0 x 106 N/C causes the air to break down and conduct charge (lightning), what is the maximum charge the cloud can hold?
