Answer:
F= σ² L² /2ε₀
F = (L² ε₀/4π) ΔV² / r⁴
Explanation:
a) For this exercise we can use Coulomb's law
F = - k Q² / r²
where the negative sign indicates that the force is attractive and the value of the charge is equal to the two plates
Capacitance is defined by
C = Q / ΔV
Q = C ΔV
also the capacitance for a parallel plate capacitor is related to its shape
C = ε₀ A / r
we substitute
Q = ε₀ A ΔV / r
we substitute in the force equation
F = k (ε₀ A ΔV / r)² / r²
k = 1 / 4πε₀
F = ε₀ /4π L² ΔV² / r⁴4
F = L² ΔV² ε₀/ (4π r⁴)
F = (L² ε₀/4π) ΔV² / r⁴
b) Another way to solve the exercise is to use the relationship between the force and the electric field
F = q E
where we can calculate the field created by a plane using Gaussian law, where we use a cylinder with a base parallel to the plate as the Gaussian surface
Ф = ∫E .dA = / ε₀
the plate have two side
2E A = q_{int} / ε₀
E = σ / 2ε₀
σ = q_{int} / A
substituting in force
F = q σ / 2ε₀
the charge total on the other plate is
q = σ A
q = σ L²
F= σ² L² /2ε₀
Answer:
Explanation:
Capacitance C is given by
A= area of capacitor cross section
d= distance
therefore,
A_1= πR^2
d_1= d
A_= π(2R)^2
d_2 = 2d
threfore
and
also we know that E= V/d
⇒
⇒
= A_1/A_2= =4
therefore,
