(a) An air-filled parallel-plate capacitor (not shown) with a 2.67mm gap-width has a capacitance value of 3.27F and holds a charge of 9.73C. (The capacitor is not connected to a voltage source.) What is the area, in square meters, of each plate? (3 pts) (b) Holding all other parameters constant, the gap between the capacitor plates is filled with an insulating material with a dielectric constant of 5.00. As a result, indicate what changed about the following quantities by circling "Increased", "Decreased", or "No Change" for each: (5 pts) Capacitance: Increased Decreased No Change Charge: Increased Decreased No Change Voltage: Increased Decreased No Change E-field inside: Increased Decreased No Change Pot. Energy stored: Increased Decreased No Change (c) What is the equivalent capacitance C of the network of four capacitors shown at the right, if they each individually have a capacitance of 2 pF (p = pico = 10-12)? (5 pts) V=+10V V=0V D B D
