AP Physics 2 Electrostatics

Charges on a body are found on the ......................of the body

list the properties of electric field lines

• they never cross each other

• they move from positive to the negative charges

• they can cross each other at strong fields

• they are parallel at uniform fields

material found between the plates of a capacitor is called a .............................

how does the area of overlap between the plates of a capacitor affect capacitance

• its increase leads to increase in capacitance

• its increase leads to decrease in capacitance

• its increase leads to constant capacitance

Given that C1=8x10^-6F, C2=6X10^-6F and C3=3x10^-6F, find the resultant capacitance in the arrangement

• 1.6 x 10^-6F

• 17 X 10^-6F

• 17X10^-12F

• 1.6 X 10^-12F

find the combined capacitance in the arrangement

• 4.8

• 2.01

• 0.29

if a p.d of 100V is supplied in the circuit find the total charge in the system

• 2.9 x10^-5 C

• 2.9 X 10^-8 C

• 2.9 X 10^-6 C

state the SI unit of capacitance
