QUESTION:
Problem 68PE
Show that for a given dielectric material the maximum energy a parallel plate capacitor can store is directly proportional to the volume of dielectric ( Volume = A · d ). Note that the applied voltage is limited by the dielectric strength.
ANSWER:
Solution 68PE
Step 1 of 4
The applied voltage across the capacitor is limited by the dielectric strength.
The formula for energy between a parallel plate capacitor is as,
Ecap = CV2
Here, V is the voltage across the plate, C is the capacitance of the of the capacitor.
