    Prove that the force acting on one plate due to the other in a parallel plate capacitor is F =(1)/(2) (CV^(2))/(d) .

    What is the area of the plates of a 2 F parallel plate capacitor, given that the separation between the plates is 0.5 cm? [You will realise from your answer why ordinary capacitors are in the range of µF or less. However, electrolytic capacitors do have a much larger capacitance (0.1 F) because of very minute separation between the conductors.]
