Two parallel conducting plates each have an area of and are separated by a distance,
. One plate has a charge
evenly distributed across it, and the other has a charge of
. A proton (charge
) is initially held near the positive plate, then released such that it accelerates towards the negative plate. How much kinetic energy has the proton gained in this process?

Charge is distributed uniformly over the area of the two plates of a parallel plate capacitor, resulting in a surface area charge density of on the plates (the top plate is positive and the bottom is negative, as shown below). Each plate has area
and are separated by distance
. A material of dielectric constant
has been placed between the two plates.
Which of the following would not result in an increase in the measure of electric potential difference between the two plates?
A parallel plate capacitor has a capacitance of . If the plates are
apart, what is the area of the plates?

You are hired to make a capacitor out of two parallel metal sheets. If someone wanted you to make a thin capacitor of out of those metal sheets, and the sheets needed to be
apart, what area do the two metal plates need to be?
