ok, tell me as much stuff as possible that could help me on a pro-recycling persuasive speech pleaseand no wikipedia stuffmy teacher doesnt allow us to use wikipedia.
Capacitance is a quantity which depends on the geometry of the plates and Eo permittivity constbut when u insert any medium between them in place of air , the C changes K(dielectric const) times C (EoXA)/d where A is the area of the sheet and d is the separation between them but here the separation is filled with paper.So, we just have to multiply C with dielectric constant call it K which in question is 3 SO, ur answer is C K(EoXA)/d K 3 , Eo 8.85 X 10^-12 , A55X55(change it to meter) , d 0.3mm(change it to meter) THIS IS IT.
C Q/ V is the general relation defining capacitanceIt means the electrical charge required to raise the potential of the capacitor i.eto make a p.dbetween its plates by one unit( Volt)Your example of the capacitor is better known as parallel plate capacitorThe geometrical value of its capacitance can be arrived at by using Gauss's flux theorem over a closed surface, whereby the electric field intensity E is determined first and then potential is calculated using E - ?V/ ?xI do not go into further elaborationThe derivation is available in any undergraduate electricity text bookIf you are still not in the level just be content now with the so derived relationIt is C 4π A / d, where A area, d separation between plates, the dielectric constant etc.I think from your data you can work out it now.
