A parallel capacitor of plate area 2m2 and plate separation 5 mm is charged to 10,000 V in free space. Calculate (a) capacitance (b) Charge (c) Charge density (d) Field intensity (e) Field displacement.

Suggested answer:

(a) Capacitance in vacuum

= 3.54 x 10-9 F

(b) Charge on each plate

= 3.54 x 10-9 x 104 C

= 3.54 x 10-5 C

(c) Charge density on each plate

= 1.77 x 10-5 Cm-2

(d) Field Intensity

(e) Field displacement

= 1.77 x 10-5 Cm-2
