a measure of how much charge must be puton the plates to produce a certain potentialdifference between them:
The greater the capacitance, the more chargeis required.
The SI unit of capacitance : coulomb per volt(a.k.a. farad [F])
1 farad = 1 F = 1 coulomb per volt = 1 e/v.
Capacitance =
Parallel platecapacitor:so large, so close togetherthe fringing of the electricfield can be neglected
Electric Field= ∙ ==Potential Difference− = − ∙= + ∙ =

Capacitors in Parallel• = = =• The total charge =
sum of the chargesstored on all thecapacitors= + += + +== + +=

Capacitors in Series• = = =• The sum of the potential
differences across all thecapacitors is equal to theapplied potential difference= + += 1 + 1 + 1
== 11/ + 1/ + 1/1 = 1
At given instant:- A charge has been transferred- Potential difference between plates
is = /If extra increment charge is added

Energy density= / = 2 /= 12
Dielectric: an insulating material (mineral oil or plastic)what happens?- the capacitance increased by a numerical factor , (Faraday exp.)- =the dielectric constant of the insulating material
Capacitor with a Dielectric
>The effect of adielectric is to
weaken the electricfield

The effect of both
polar and nonpolar
dielectrics:
to weaken any
applied field within
them, as between
the plates of a
capacitor.

1. The flux integral now involves , not just . (Thevector is sometimes called the electricdisplacement → ∮ ∙ =
2. The charge enclosed by the Gaussian surface isnow taken to be the free charge only.
3. Our original statement of Gauss' law is differentto the one above that is replaced by . Wekeep inside the integral to allow for cases inwhich is not constant over the entire Gaussiansurface.
