Answer:
Explanation:
capacitance of air capacitor
C = ε₀ A / d
ε₀ is permittivity of medium , A is plate area , d is distance between plate .
C = 8.85 x 10⁻¹² x 25 x 10⁻⁴ / 1.3 x 10⁻²
= 170.19 x 10⁻¹⁴ F .
charge on the capacitor when it is charged to potential of 255 V
= CV , C is capacitance and V is potential
= 170.19 x 10⁻¹⁴ x 255
= 4.34 x 10⁻¹⁰ C .
After it is disconnected from the source , and it is immersed in water , charge on it remains the same .
So its charge when immersed in water will be constant at 4.34 x 10⁻¹⁰ C.
b )
When it is immersed in water its capacity increases k times where k is dielectric constant of water which is 80 .
capacitance of capacitor in water = 80 x 170.19 x 10⁻¹⁴ F
= 13615.2 x 10⁻¹⁴ F .
= 1.36 x 10⁻¹⁰ F
potential difference = charge / capacitance
= 4.34 x 10⁻¹⁰ / 1.36 x 10⁻¹⁰
= 3.2 V
c )
Energy of capacitor = 1/2 C V²
Initial energy = 1/2 x 170.19 x 255² x 10⁻¹⁴
= 55.33 x 10⁻⁹ J
Final energy = 1/2 x 1.36 x 10⁻¹⁰ x 3.2²
= .7 x 10⁻⁹ J .
decrease of energy = 54.63 x 10⁻⁹ J .
