A parallel-plate air capacitor is to store a charge of magnitude 210 pC on each plate when the potential difference between the plates is 44.0 V. If the area of each plate is 6.80 cm^2, what is the separation between the plates? If the separation between the two plates is double the value calculated in part (a), what potential difference is required for the capacitor to store a charge of magnitude 210 pC on each plate?

00:01 All right, so let's say we have a parallel plate capacitor that is charged up to a voltage of 44 volts, and it has a capacitance of 29 picoculums.
00:11 Or sorry, the charge is 29 picoculums.
00:14 So we want to know if the plate area is 6 .8 square centimeters.
00:20 What's the separation between the plate? so let's write this 6 .8 times 10 to the negative 4th square meters.
00:28 Then the capacitance of the system is going to be the charge divided by the voltage difference...
