Problem 67GP
(II) To get an idea how big a farad is, suppose you want to make a 1-F air-filled parallel-plate capacitor for a circuit you are building. To make it a reasonable size, suppose you limit the plate area to 1.0 cm2 What would the gap have to be between the plates? Is this practically achievable?

ANSWER:Step-by-step solution
Step 1 of 2
We are going to find the plate separation of a capacitor having
Capacitance of the capacitor
The area of the plates
The electric permittivity of free space
The gap between the the plates
