Problem 1 A parallel-plate air capacitor of area A = 26.0 cm2 and plate separation d = 2.00 mm is charged by a battery to a voltage 60.0 V. If a dielectric material with κ =5.00 is inserted so that it fills the volume between the plates (with the capacitor still connected to the battery), how much additional charge will flow from the battery onto the positive plate? The Earth is a conducting sphere of radius R = 6370 km. At the Earth s surface there is an electric field, pointing downward, of magnitude E(R) = V/m. a) What is the total charge of the Earth? You are correct. Your receipt is b) Assume that there are no other charges in the Earth s atmosphere, etc. (Actually there are but for this problem pretend that there are not.) What is the voltage at the surface of the Earth, if we take the voltage very far from the Earth to be 0 Volts? (Take the dielectric constant of air to be 1.) You are correct. Your receipt is c) Based on these two results, what is the capacitance of the Earth? You are correct.
