A parallel plate capacitor is made of two circular plates separated by a distance of 5mm and with a dielectric of dielectric constant 2.2 between them. When the electric field in the dielectric is `3xx10^(4) V/m`, the charge density of the positive plate will be close to

A

`6xx10^(-7)C//m^(2)`

B

`3xx10^(-7)C//m^(2)`

C

`3xx10^(4)C//m^(2)`

D

`6xx10^(4)C//m^(2)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A

Electric field inside dielectric `E=(sigma)/(Kepsi_(0))=3xx10^(4)`
`implies sigma=2.2xx8.58xx3xx10^(4)xx10^(-12)=6.6xx8.85xx10^(-8)=5.841xx10^(-7)~~6xx10^(-7)c//m^(2)`.
