In this question, we are looking at a parallel plate capacitor and i want to do some calculations on it.
00:09
So in part a, you want to draw an arrow indicating the direction of electric field between the plates.
00:15
So the electric field points from the positive to the negative.
00:20
So the e is pointing to the right.
00:24
And then in question 2a, you want to calculate the capacitance.
00:30
The plate dimension is 15 cm by 15 cm.
00:34
The gap is 1 .5 mm, and kappa is 1.
00:37
So we'll be using this formula.
00:41
So c equals to kappa, epsilon 0, a over d.
00:49
Kappa is 1, so i'm not writing it.
00:52
Epsilon is, epsilon 0 is 8 .85 times 10 to the negative 12.
00:57
And then the area is 15 cm square.
01:01
So convert to meter to be 0 .15 square.
01:05
Okay, the gap is 1 .5 m m.
01:09
And then you calculate this to be 1 .33 times 10 to the negative 10 ferret using our calculator.
01:21
And then in part 2b, we want to convert the answers into a to micro ferret and picofarret.
01:33
So c equals to 1 .5.
01:34
0 .33 times 10 to the negative 10 ferret it will be 10 to the 1 .33 times 10 to the negative 4 micro ferret is so equal to 1 3 times 10 1 3 pico ferret yeah so just the other micro is sent to the negative 6 so just imagine you can break like the 10 to the negative 10 to somewhere just pull 10 to the negative 6 out and what's remaining we tend to the negative fall and then you can change it to micro ferret okay yeah same same thing for picofarret okay so when d decreases okay number three when d decreases the c would increase okay so yeah because c is inversely proportional to d key number four um if you charge the capacitor with a 24 battery was the electrical potential energy so we'll be using this formula you equals to half cb square okay so half times 1 .33 times 10 to the negative 10 times 24 square okay you get 3 .82 times 10 to the negative 8 juice.
03:16
Okay, so this is the answer for question 4 then 4b.
03:22
If we disconnect the battery and move the plates to a separation of 0 .1 m m.
03:29
Okay meaning the d becomes smaller.
03:32
That's the charge change and says no because the battery is disconnected.
03:37
Okay, yeah no charge can flow to the plates.
03:42
So the charge on the capacitor will not change.
03:46
And then for c we need to calculate a new voltage and the energy start in the capacitor.
03:52
So we will calculate the c new first...
