A parallel-plate capacitor is formed from two 6.0-cm-diameter electrodes spaced 2.0 mm apart. The electric field strength inside the capacitor is 1.0 * 10 6 N/C. What is the charge (in nC) on each electrode?

Step 1
0 cm, the radius would be half of the diameter, which is 3.0 cm or 0.03 m. The area of each electrode can be calculated using the formula for the area of a circle: A = πr^2. A = π(0.03 m)^2 A = π(0.0009 m^2) A = 0.0009π m^2 Show more…
