That's a good point, I never thought about that.

I see it on post #8 of mine but it's not on post #1... I'll investigate, thanks.

Yes it is confusing now that I'm reading it again! I'll edit it once I figure out where the edit button is... I'd actually like to know both the dielectric strength & dielectric constant.

If I had two different materials between two oppositely charged plates, would the total dielectric strength just be an average of both dielectric constants with respect to each of their thicknesses? Or is it more complicated than that? Material A is in full contact with one plate and material...

Thankyou!

Ah I see. Do you know where I might find some helpful information on the equation I need? Yeah I think my idea here was - if the two plates were horizontal and were attracted to each other, how heavy an object can the bottom plate hold up without it separating. No, I've not heard of the term...

Hey everyone, This is my first post here, please forgive me if it's in the wrong place. Years ago I made this small app in C# for calculating the force, in Newtons, between two oppositely charged plates that can take various parameters. I've never truly believed the numbers it outputs as they...
