A student working in the physics laboratory connects a parallel-plate capacitor to a battery, so that the potential difference between the plates is 230 V. Assume a plate separation of d = 1.51 cm and a plate area of A = 25.0 cm2. When the battery is removed, the capacitor is plunged into a container of distilled water. Assume distilled water is an insulator with a dielectric constant of 80.0. (a) Calculate the charge on the plates (in pC) before and after the capacitor is submerged. (Enter the magnitudes.) before Qi = pC after Qf = pC (b) Determine the capacitance (in F) and potential difference (in V ) after immersion. Cf = F ΔVf = V (c) Determine the change in energy (in nJ ) of the capacitor. ΔU = nJ (d) What If? Repeat parts (a) through (c) of the problem in the case that the capacitor is immersed in distilled water while still connected to the 230 V potential difference. Calculate the charge on the plates (in pC) before and after the capacitor is submerged.

A lab technician builds a parallel-plate capacitor with adjustable spacing between the plates. When the plates are at their initial separation, the capacitance is 4.00 μF. (a) At this capacitance, the capacitor is connected to a 12.00 V battery. After fully charging, how much energy (in μJ) is stored in the capacitor? μJ (b) The battery is then disconnected. Without discharging the capacitor, the lab technician then doubles the separation between the plates. At this point, how much energy (in μJ) is stored in the capacitor? μJ (c) Without changing this new separation between the plates, the capacitor is discharged, and then reconnected to the 12.00 V battery. Now, after fully charging, how much energy (in μJ) is stored in the capacitor? μJ
