square plates of a length of 10
cm separated by 1 mm. (a)
Calculate the capacitance (b) If
this capacitor is charged to 12 V,

from one plate to another
Find an expression for the capacitance of a cylindrical capacitor consisting of two
conductors, each of length L. Apply to the case: R1=.1 cm; R2= 1.2cm; L =50 cm.
To represent the capacitance against the quotient R2/R1
A coaxial cable is a long
cylindrical capacitor …
A variable air-gap capacitor (for tuning
circuits of old radios) . The
semicircular plates rotate through the
fixed plates, which changes the
amount of surface area between the
plates, and hence the capacitance
Capacitance switching in computer
keyboards. A metal plate attached to
each key acts as the top plate of a
capacitor. Depressing the key
decreases the separation between the
top and bottom plates and increases
capacitance, which triggers the
electronic circuitry of the compute to
acknowledge the keystroke
Some types of capacitors:
Air - Often used in radio tuning circuits
Mylar - Most commonly used for timer circuits like clocks, alarms and
counters
Glass - Good for high voltage applications
Ceramic - Used for high frequency purposes like antennas, X-ray and
magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) machines
Super capacitor - Powers electric and hybrid cars
In a way, a capacitor is a little like a battery. Although they work in completely
different ways, capacitors and batteries both store electrical energy

Molecular View of a Dielectric
Polarization of a dielectric in
presence of an electric field
When a dielectric is placed on a electric field, its molecules are polarized in such a way that there is a net
dipole moment parallel to the field. The net effect is the creation of a surface charge on the dielectric
faces near the plates. The surface charges is called a bound charge because it is bound to the
molecules of dielectric and cannot move.
By this way, the net
electric field in the
dielectric is weakened
