Explain how Gauss' law is used to find the capacitance of a parallel-plate capacitor.

Gauss' law is a powerful tool in electromagnetism that relates the electric field to the charge distribution. It states that the flux of the electric field through a closed surface is proportional to the charge enclosed by that surface. In the context of a parallel-plate capacitor, Gauss' law can be used to find the electric field between the plates, and this, in turn, can be used to find the capacitance. Consider a parallel-plate capacitor with a plate area A, plate separation d, and a charge Q distributed uniformly on the plates. We can imagine drawing a cylindrical Gaussian surface between the plates, with one endcap on one plate and the other endcap on the other plate, and the curved surface of the cylinder perpendicular to the plates. By Gauss' law, the flux of the electric field through this surface is equal to the charge enclosed by the surface, which is Q. The electric field E between the plates is perpendicular to the plates and has the same magnitude at every point between them. The electric field lines are straight and parallel, pointing from the positive plate to the negative plate. Therefore, the electric field E is given by:

In a region that is completely filled by a dielectric, all electrostatic equations containing the permittivity constant must be modified by replacing ε₀ (the permittivity of free space) with ε (the permittivity of the dielectric material). This is because a dielectric material has the ability to polarize in the presence of an electric field, which reduces the effective electric field in the material and increases the capacitance of any capacitors in the region. The permittivity of the dielectric material is a measure of its ability to store electric charge in an electric field and is related to the permittivity of free space by a factor known as the dielectric constant (κ). Thus, the new permittivity constant in the presence of the dielectric is ε = κε₀.

Key Idea regarding the permittivity of free space by a factor known as the dielectric constant (K).

A given device (conductor, resistor, or any other electrical device) obeys __________ _____ if its resistance R, defined by Eq. 26.3.1 as V/i, is independent of the applied potential difference V. A given material obeys Ohm's law if its resistivity, defined by Eq. 26.3.3 is independent of the magnitude and direction of the applied electric field .

_________________ are materials that have few conduction electrons but can become conductors when they are doped with other atoms that contribute charge carriers.

Semiconductors

The SI unit of electric current is the __________________________

ampere (A): 1 A = 1 C/s.

The proportionality constant C is called the _________________ of the capacitor. Its value depends only on the geometry of the plates and not on their charge or potential difference. The capacitance is a measure of how much charge must be put on the plates to produce a certain potential difference between them: The greater the capacitance, the more charge is required. The SI unit of capacitance that follows from Eq. 25.1.1 is the coulomb per volt. This unit occurs so often that it is given a special name, the farad (F): (25.1.2) As you will see, the farad is a very large unit. Submultiples of the farad, such as the microfarad (1 μF = 10-6 F) and the picofarad (1 pF = 10-12 F), are more convenient units in practice.
