Question: The figure below shows a system with two equal capacitors. The capacitance C = 0 . 0 0 1 mF , d = 1 mm

The figure below shows a system with two equal capacitors. The capacitance C=0.001mF, d =1 mm, and the battery supplies V =1 Volt. Initially each capacitor is filled with air.
1. What is the total charge residing in each plate of the 2 capacitors? Please clearly indicate what is the charge in the top and bottom of each capacitor (total 4 answers).
2.What is the electric field (direction and magnitude) inside each capacitor.
3.What is the effective capacitance of the system?
4.While the battery remains connected, we filled the capacitor on the right with a dielectric =3. What is the total charge residing in each plate of the 2 capacitors (Please indicate what is the charge in the top and bottom of each capacitor). What is the electric field inside each capacitor?
