Section A

Answer all questions in this section.


0 1 A capacitor of capacitance 63 pF is made from two parallel metal plates
separated by an air gap.
The capacitor is charged so that it stores a charge of 7.6 × 10−10 C; it is then isolated.

A sheet of mica of dielectric constant 6.0 is inserted between the plates so that it completely
fills the space between them. The mica does not discharge the capacitor and does not
change the separation of the plates.

0 1 .1 Explain what is meant by a dielectric constant of 6.0
[1 mark]




0 1




.2 Mica is made up of polar molecules. As the mica is inserted, the capacitance of the

capacitor changes.

Explain how the polar molecules cause this change in capacitance.
