A parallel plate capacitor is formed by two plates each of area 30πcm230\pi{cm}^{2} separated by 1mm1mm. A material of dielectric strength 3.6×107Vm−13 . 6 \times {10}^{7}V{m}^{- 1} is filled between the plates. If the maximum charge that can be stored on the capacitor without causing any dielectric breakdown is 7×10−6C7 \times {10}^{- 6}C, the value of dielectric constant of the material is :

[Use 14πεo=9×109Nm2C−2\dfrac{1}{4\pi{ε}_{o}} = 9 \times {10}^{9}N{m}^{2}{C}^{- 2}]

Options

  1. A1.661 . 66
  2. B1.751 . 75
  3. C2.252 . 25
  4. D2.332 . 33

Correct answer

D. 2.332 . 33

Step-by-step solution

The dielectric strength given is 3.6×107Vm−13 . 6 \times {10}^{7}V{m}^{- 1}.and the separation is 1mm1mm. Therefore, maximum potential difference that can be applied will be,

{V}_\max = 3 . 6 \times {10}^{7} \times d.

Now,

C = \dfrac{{q}_\max}{{V}_\max} ⇒ \dfrac{k{ε}_{0}A}{d} = \dfrac{7 \times {10}^{- 7}}{3 . 6 \times {10}^{7} \times d}k = \dfrac{d}{{ε}_{0} \times 30\pi \times {10}^{- 4}} \times \dfrac{7 \times {10}^{- 7}}{3 . 6 \times {10}^{7} \times d} = 2 . 33
