A 12.0-V battery (potential source) is connected across a 6.00-F air-filled capacitor.
 
  (a) How much energy can be stored this way?
  (b) How much excess charge is on each plate of the capacitor?

Question 2

An air-filled parallel-plate capacitor is constructed with a plate area of 0.40 m2 and a plate separation of 0.10 mm.
 
  It is then charged to a potential difference of 12 V? (0 = 8.85  10-12 C2/N  m2 )
  (a) How much charge is stored on each of its plates?
  (b) How much energy is stored in it?

People who have myopia, or nearsightedness, are not able to see objects at a distance but only up close. It occurs when the cornea is either curved too steeply, the eye is too long, or both. This condition is progressive and worsens with time. More than 100 million people in the United States are nearsighted, but only 20% of those are born with the condition. Diet, eye exercise, drug therapy, and corrective lenses can all help manage nearsightedness.
