A parallel plate capacitor is made of two 3.0 cm x 3.0 cm square plates that are separated by 1.0 mm are connected to a12.0 V battery. If and electron is released from the negative electrode, what speed will it reach by the time it arrives at the positive electrode?

A parallel plate capacitor has a plate area of 0.64cm^2. When the plates are in a vacuum, the capacitance of the capacitor is 4.9 pF. a) Calculate the value of the capacitance if the space between plates is filled with nylon? k of nylon is 3.4 b) What is the max potential difference that can be applied to the plates without causing dielectric breakdown?
