I would prefer to be able to understand the calculations needed to determine the thickness of the dielectric. This was a question that I got wrong on a test and am trying to solve them correctly to keep in my records.
Thanks for the info. I'm still not exactly sure how to solve for the thickness of the dielectric.
I'm mainly having problems setting up with question, once I get it set up I'll be able to solve everything myself. I'm just not able to think of a way to solve this question without having...
Homework Statement
A parallel plate capacitor has rectangular plates measuring 44.0 cm by 30.0 cm, and can be charged to 1600 V maximum ΔV without electrical breakdown. The gap between the plates is fulled with mylar dielectric (κ=3.2). Find the thickness of the dielectric.Homework Equations...
