$A$ parallel plate capacitor is to be designed with a voltage rating $1\; kV$,using a material of dielectric constant $3$ and dielectric strength about $10^{7}\; V\,m^{-1}$. (Dielectric strength is the maximum electric field a material can tolerate without breakdown,i.e.,without starting to conduct electricity through partial ionisation.) For safety,we should like the field never to exceed,say $10\%$ of the dielectric strength. What minimum area (in $cm^2$) of the plates is required to have a capacitance of $50\; pF$?

What is the energy density of a parallel plate capacitor with area $A$ and charge $Q$?

The distance between the two plates of a parallel plate capacitor is doubled and the area of each plate is halved. If $C$ is its initial capacitance,its final capacitance is equal to

Four identical plates each of area $a$ are separated by a distance $d$. The connection is shown below. What is the capacitance between $P$ and $Q$?

When a test charge placed in the middle of a parallel plate capacitor experiences a force $F$,what will be the force experienced by the same test charge if one plate is removed?
