What else can I help you with?
How does a capacitor bank work?
They store charge between their plates in an electric field
Where does the energy of a charged capacitor reside?
In the electric field inside the dielectric (or insulating) medium separating the two plates
Charge buildup between the plates of a capacitor stops when?
Charge buildup between the plates of a capacitor stops when the current flow through the capacitor goes to zero.
Why does a capacitor keep its charge after the supply is disconnected?
Yes, it can. Then you can use the charge to power something else. :)
For a parallel plate capacitor is The poynting vector points everywhere radially outward of the volume between plates?
No, the Poynting vector does not point radially outward in the volume between the plates of a parallel plate capacitor. The Poynting vector represents the direction and flow of electromagnetic energy, and in the case of a static electric field between the plates, the Poynting vector is zero within the volume between the plates.
What is the relationship between the magnetic field between capacitor plates in the context of mastering physics?
In the context of mastering physics, the relationship between the magnetic field between capacitor plates is that when a capacitor is charged, a magnetic field is created between the plates. This magnetic field is perpendicular to the electric field between the plates and is proportional to the rate of change of the electric field.
Does a magnetic fIEld have an effect on a capacitor placed in between the plates?
Does a magnetic field have an effect on a capacitor when it is placed between the plates? Yes, a magnetic field between the plates of a capacitor would have some effect. Without more information it is difficult to determine how much.
Is the electric field in a capacitor constant?
In an ideal capacitor, the electric field is constant between the plates. This means that the electric field is uniform and uniform inside the capacitor.
What is the energy stored in magnet field of the capacitor?
The energy stored in the magnetic field of a capacitor is typically negligible compared to the energy stored in the electric field between the capacitor plates. In most practical capacitor applications, the dominant energy storage mechanism is the electric field between the plates.
What is the effect of the magnetic field between capacitor plates on the overall performance of the capacitor?
The magnetic field between capacitor plates does not have a significant effect on the overall performance of the capacitor. The main factors that affect a capacitor's performance are its capacitance, voltage rating, and dielectric material.
What is the behavior of the electric field outside a capacitor?
The behavior of the electric field outside a capacitor is that it is weak and tends to spread out in all directions.
What is the effect of a dielectric material on the electric field of a capacitor?
A dielectric material placed between the plates of a capacitor reduces the electric field strength within the capacitor, increasing its capacitance. This is because the dielectric material polarizes in response to the electric field, creating an opposing electric field that weakens the overall field between the plates.
What is the method to find the electric field between the plates in a parallel plate capacitor?
To find the electric field between the plates in a parallel plate capacitor, you can use the formula E V/d, where E is the electric field strength, V is the voltage across the plates, and d is the distance between the plates.
If the acceleration of a charged particle between plates in a plate capacitor is a at halfway between the plates why will the particle experience the same acceleration when its 1 quarter of the way?
The acceleration of a charged particle between plates in a plate capacitor is constant due to the uniform electric field between the plates. Since the field strength remains the same between the plates, the particle will experience the same acceleration regardless of its position if it is perpendicular to the field lines.
How does the insertion of a dielectric affect the capacitance of a capacitor?
When a dielectric is inserted between the plates of a capacitor, it increases the capacitance of the capacitor. This is because the dielectric material reduces the electric field between the plates, allowing more charge to be stored on the plates for a given voltage.
Where is energy stored in a capacitor and in inductor?
Energy is stored in a capacitor in the electric field between its plates. In an inductor, energy is stored in the magnetic field around the coil.
What is the total electric-field energy stored in the capacitor when charged to its maximum capacity?
The total electric-field energy stored in a capacitor when charged to its maximum capacity is equal to the energy stored in the electric field between the capacitor plates. This energy can be calculated using the formula: E 1/2 C V2, where E is the energy stored, C is the capacitance of the capacitor, and V is the voltage across the capacitor plates.
