A 0.0100uF capacitor (with an air gap) is connected to a 9.0V battery.

a) How much charge is on the capacitor?

b) A dielectric material is then slid in the capacitor's gap with a dielectric constant of 2.5. (It is still connected to the battery). What is the new charge on the capacitor?

    An air gap capacitor having a capacitance of 2.00μF is connected to a battery; it acquires a charge of 6.00μC. The battery is then disconnected. (Assume that, to a good approximation, the formulas for an infinite parallel plate capacitor apply.) A neutral insulating sheet with a dielectric constant of 2.5 is inserted between the plates of the charged capacitor, completely filling the gap. What is the capacitance of the capacitor now that the insulator has been added?
