Problem

The plates of a parallel-plate capacitor have area

200\,\text{cm}^2

and are separated by

1.0\,\text{mm}

. The region between the plates is filled with a dielectric of constant

\kappa = 4

. Calculate the capacitance of the arrangement.

(\varepsilon_0 = 8.85 \times 10^{-12}\,\text{F\,m}^{-1})

0.18\,\text{nF}

7.08\,\mu\text{F}

0.71\,\text{nF}

2.84\,\text{nF}
