Question 1

The plates of a parallel plate capacitor of capacitance are horizontal. Into the gap a slab of dielectric material with is placed, filling the bottom half of the gap between the plates. What is the resulting new capacitance?







Question 2

Two spheres are made of conducting material. Sphere #2 has twice the radius of Sphere #1. What is the ratio of the capacitance of Sphere #2 to the capacitance of sphere #1?

1, since all conducting spheres have the same capacitance.

2

4

8

A single sphere has no capacitance since a second concentric spherical shell is necessary to make a spherical capacitor. Thus, none of the answers above is correct.
