Homework Statement


WHat's thd capacitance of two parallel metal plates each with an area of 100cm^2 separated by 1.0mm if the gap is filled with glass having a dialectric constant of 10?


Homework Equations


C= EoA/d


The Attempt at a Solution


I don't know how to use dialectric constant in the equation...

Please help ASAP THank you so much!
