The plates of a parallel plate capacitor have an area of100 cm^(2) each and are separated by 3 mm . The capacitor is charged by connecting it to a 400 V supply . If a dieletric of dielectric constant 2.5 is introduced between the plates of the capacitor , then find the electrostatic energy stored and also change in the energy stored . |

Answer» Solution :Given ` A = 100 cm^(2) = 10^(2) xx 10^(-4) = 10^(-2) m^(2)` d = 3 mm = ` 3xx 10^(-3) m`, V = 400 V ` E^(1) = in _(r) E = 2.5 xx 2.61 xx 10^(-6) = 5.903 xx 10^(-6) J` `Delta E = E^(1) - E = (5.903 - 2.361 ) xx 10^(-6) J ` Difference in the energy STORED ` Delta E ` , ` Delta E = 3.542 xx 10^(-6) J ` |
