APACITANCE

INTRODUCTION A capacitor can store energy in the form of potential energy in an electric field. In this chapter we'll discuss the capacity of conductors to hold charge and energy.

CAPACITANCE OF AN ISOLATED CONDUCTOR When a conductor is charged its potential increases. It is found that for an isolated conductor (conductor should be of finite dimension, so that potential of infinity can be assumed to be zero). Potential of the conductor is proportional to charge given to it. q = charge on conductor V = potential of conductor qV  q = CV Where C is proportionality constant called capacitance of the conductor. Definition of capacitance : Capacitance of conductor is defined as charge required to increase the potential of conductor by one unit. Important points about the capacitance of an isolated conductor : (i)

It is a scalar quantity.

(ii)

Unit of capacitance is farad in SI units and its dimensional formula is M–1 L–2 2 T4

(iii)

1 Farad : 1 Farad is the capacitance of a conductor for which 1 coulomb charge increases potential by 1 volt. 1 Farad =

1 Coulomb 1 Volt

1 F = 10–6 F, 1nF = 10–9 F (iv)

or 1 pF = 10–12 F

Capacitance of an isolated conductor depends on following factors : (a) Shape and size of the conductor : On increasing the size, capacitance increases. (b) On surrounding medium : With increase in dielectric constant K, capacitance increases. (c) Presence of other conductors : When a neutral conductor is placed near a charged conductor capacitance of conductors increases.

(v)

Capacitance of a conductor do not depend on (a) Charge on the conductor (b) Potential of the conductor (c) Potential energy of the conductor.

POTENTIAL ENERGY OR SELF ENERGY OF AN ISOLATED CONDUCTOR Work done in charging the conductor to the charge on it against its own electric field or total energy stored in electric field of conductor is called self energy or self potential energy of conductor. Electric potential energy (Self Energy) : U=

1 qV q2 = CV2 = 2 2 2C

q = Charge on the conductor V = Potential of the conductor C = Capacitance of the conductor. Self energy is stored in the electric field of the conductor with energy density (Energy per unit volume) dU 1 1 = 0 E2 [The energy density in a medium is 0 r E2 ] dV 2 2

where E is the electric field at that point. In case of charged conductor energy stored is only out side the conductor but in case of charged insulating material it is outside as well as inside the insulator.

(iv) The potential difference across the condenser plates at any instant of time is given by V = V0[1 – e–(t/RC)] volt (v) The potential curve is also similar to that of charge. During charging process an electric current flows in the circuit for a small interval of time which is known as the transient current. The value of this current at any instant of time is given by = 0[e–(t/RC)] ampere According to this equation the current falls in the circuit exponentially (Fig.).
