Students in an introductory physics lab are performing an experiment with a parallel-plate capacitor made of two circular aluminum plates, each 21 cm in diameter, separated by 1.0 cm. how much charge can be added to each of the plates before a spark jumps between the two plates? for such flat electrodes, assume that value of 3×106n/c of the field causes a spark.

Explanation:

Given:

When the dimensions of the plate of the capacitor is comparatively much larger than the distance of separation between the plates, then, according to the Gauss' law of electrostatics, the value of the electric field strength in the region between the plates of the capacitor is given by

where,

For the minimum value of electric field that produces spark,

It is the maximum value of the magnitude of charge which can be added up to each of the plates of the capacitor.
