    a)

    Capacitance = k x ε° x area / separation

    ε° = 8.854 10^-12 F / m

    k = 2.4max

    average k = 0.78 / 1.27 * 2.4 + (1.27 - 0.78) / 1.27 * 1 = 1.474 + 0.386 = 1.86

    (61.4 % separation k = 2.4 - - - 38.6 % k = 1 air - - - average k = 0.614 * 2.34 + 0.386 * 1 = 1.86

    area = 145 cm2 = 0.0145 m2

    separation = 1.27 cm 0.0127 m

    C = 1.86 * 8.854 10^-12 * 0.0145 / 0.0127 = 18.8 pF

    b) Q = C * V - - - 18.8 * 83 = 1560.4 pC = 1.5604 nC

    c) E = V / d = 83 / 0.0127 = 6535.4 V/m
