Capacitors are found in all electric circuits. Capacitor Industries, Inc Chicago, IL Sarah Eno 2 PHYS 142 Capacitors CH 26 A capacitor is a way of storing charge. The symbol for a capacitor in a schematic for an electrical circuit shows basically what it is: two plates with a gap. The charges are held together on the plates by their attraction. (often want to store charge so that it can provide current) Sarah Eno 3 PHYS 142 Storing Charge CH 26 Let’s think about storing charge… Often, you want to store as much charge as possible, while avoiding large (dangerous) voltages V Ed Q E 0 A 0 VA 0 Q d For a fixed voltage, you can increase the charged stored by increasing A or decreasing d Sarah Eno 4 PHYS 142 Capacitance CH 26 VA 0 Q A 0 Q d V d Or the charge you can store per volt is related to the geometry of the plates and the gap Capacitance is the amount of charge you can store per volt, or Q/V. Farad=coulomb/volt Sarah Eno 5 PHYS 142 Increasing Area Sarah Eno CH 26 6 PHYS 142 Test Yourself CH 26 Demo j4-01 I’m going to charge these plates to 1000 V. I’m going to remove the charger, then I’m going to move them apart. As I move them, will the voltage 1) Increase 2) Decrease 3) Stay the same Sarah Eno 7 PHYS 142 Example CH 26 What would be the area of a capacitor with a gap of ½ mm to have a capacitance of 1 farad?

How many volts can it hold if it has a gap of 1mm? V Ed 3x10 0.001 3000V 6 Capacitors come with voltage ratings. Cheap capacitors can typically hold 50 V. Sarah Eno 9 PHYS 142 The Gap CH 26 What if I stick something inside the gap? Maybe something made of molecules that are electric dipoles… • ceramics • mica • polyvinyl chloride • polystyrene • glass • porcelain • rubber • electrolyte (glyco-ammonium borate, glycerol-ammonium borate, ammonium lactates, etc dissolved in goo or paste) Dielectric material Sarah Eno 10 PHYS 142 Inside: Dipoles CH 26 Electric Dipole moments in random directions Put a charge on the plates. The charge creates an electric field. Dipole moments try to align with the field.

Do j4-22 Sarah Eno 13 PHYS 142 CH 26 Inside: Fields The field goes down. So, the amount of charge you can put on for 1 volt is larger. So, the capacitance goes up. A certain fraction of the field is “canceled”. E=E0/k. V=V0/k.

Found earlier that without dielectric, need an area of 56x106 m2. So, reduce this by 10 to 56x105 m2 Sarah Eno 16 PHYS 142 Example CH 26 A typical capacitor has a capacitance of 10 mF, a gap of 0.1 mm, and is filled with a dielectric with a dielectric strength of 10.

Though it is done using properties of metal, ions, etc, you should think of it as containing a fixed E field. Charge on one side is at a higher potential than the other Sarah Eno 21 PHYS 142 Batteries CH 26 Students have many misconceptions about batteries, which lead to serious difficulties in making predictions about circuits. Batteries are not charged. They do not contain a bunch of electrons, ready to “spit out” Batteries are not current sources. They don’t put out a constant current. Sarah Eno 22 PHYS 142 Ground CH 26 Zero volt point. Reservoir of electrons. Can take and give electrons easily. Sarah Eno 23 PHYS 142 Circuits CH 26 Remember: it takes no work to move an charge through a conductor. The potential does not change! (for an ideal conductor… since only a “superconductor” is an ideal conductor, this is only mostly true for copper, gold, etc) Sarah Eno 24 PHYS 142 Test Yourself CH 26 When I close the switch will the voltage across the battery 1) Go down because charge leaves the battery to go to the capacitor 2) Go up because the battery will get additional charge from the capacitor 3) Stay the same because the voltage across a battery always stays the same Sarah Eno 25 PHYS 142 Battery + Capacitor Sarah Eno CH 26 26 PHYS 142 Example CH 26 What is the charge on a 1 mF capacitor attached to a 1.5 V battery?

The voltage from the battery will be divided between the two 2) It will double. Because there will be two capacitors charged 3) It will be the same. The voltage is always the same. Sarah Eno 29 PHYS 142 Parallel Circuits CH 26 How does the charge compare? Sarah Eno 30 PHYS 142 Parallel CH 26 Twice the charge for the same voltage. Effectively increasing the area of the capacitor Sarah Eno 31 PHYS 142 Parallel CH 26 If you replaced the 2 capacitors with 1 capacitor, what capacitance would it have to have in order to have the same voltage and the same charge -> effective capacitance of the system Ceff C1 C2 Q A 0 C V d Sarah Eno 32 PHYS 142 Series CH 26 How will the voltage across them compare? 1) It will half. The voltage from the battery will be divided between the two The voltage across each is 1/2. That means the charge on each is ½ compared to 1 capacitor circuit. 2) It will double. Because there will be two capacitors charged 3) It will be the same. The voltage is always the same. Sarah Eno 33 PHYS 142 Series CH 26 Its like you have twice the gap. The effective capacitance goes down.

Sarah Eno 37 PHYS 142 Example CH 26 What is the charge on each cap? What is the voltage across each cap? 1) Look for series and parallel combinations. Calculate equivalent capacitance. Replace. Repeat until have 1 cap. 1 1 1 1.2 2 3 2) Then work backwards Sarah Eno 38 PHYS 142 Example CH 26 Q Q 13.2 x106 C 6V Q 6 1x10 F Q 6 x106 C 6V 6 Q 6 1.2 x10 F Q 7.2 x10 C 6V 6 x106 7.2 x106 13.2 x106 C 2.2 x106 F 6 7.2 x 10 C 6 2 x10 F V 3.6V V 6 7.2 x 10 C 3x106 F V 2.4V V 3.6 2.4 6V Sarah Eno 39 PHYS 142 Example CH 26 Before the dielectric is added, the capacitance is C0. What is the capacitance afterwards? Picture it as two caps in series, each with a gap d/2 and therefore capacitance 2C0.
