[QUOTE="sophiecentaur, post: 6057771, member: 199289"] This thread could lead further to an interesting discussion; the Energy situation is as relevant as the Force situation. You would need to specify whether the capacitor is connected to a voltage supply or just free-standing if you want a quantitative answer. Work will be done when the dielectric is introduced; the dielectric would be 'pulled in', which would account for the lower PD across the plates when not connected to a supply. [/QUOTE]
