Dielectric Constant Of Water

Water constitutes about 70% of earth. Some important distinguishing properties of water are high molar concentration, small dissociation constant and high dielectric constant.

Electrostatic Potential and Capacitance

An electrostatic force is a force caused by stationary electric charges /fields. The electrostatic force is caused by the transfer of electrons in conducting materials. Coulomb’s law determines the amount of force between two stationary, charged particles. The electric force is the force which acts between two stationary charges. It is also called Coulomb force.

A Pairs of parallel wires or coaxial cables are two conductors separated by an insulator, so they have a capacitance. For a given cable, the capacitance is independent of the length if the cable is very long. A typical circuit model of a cable is shown in Figure P27.87.

Find the equivalent capacitance of a. one unit length (Fig. P27.87A), b. two unit lengths (Fig. P27.87B), and c. an infinite number of unit lengths (Fig. P27.87C). Hint: For the infinite number of units, adding one more unit at the beginning does not change the equivalent capacitance.
