A parallel plate capacitor consists of two metal plates, each 5.00 cm wide by 10.0 cm long, with a gap d =2.00 mm. The space between the plates is filled with silicone oil (dielectric constant k = 2.50 and dielectricstrength 15.0 × 106 V/m).

Because of the dielectricsilicone oil between the plates, you’ll have to multiply e0 by k in the Gauss’ Law equation.Note: You do NOT get a factor of 2, because E-field is onlybetween the plates, not on the outside.skeskeske==´==´== ===´=---×QACmCm CmEAqAECmNCEinsideCNm1383 100 0050000 0002766 2 766 100 00027662 50 8 85 1012 500 0006224200021222.../. /./..,, /bgbgchFThis is the SAME answer as in part (b).(e) Four of our capacitors are connected together as shown.
