Challenge Problems

Push your limits with advanced challenges

Challenge 1 Hard

A capacitor has a capacitance of 5 µF. If a dielectric with a dielectric constant of 3 is added, what will be the new capacitance?

💡 Hint: Use the formula relating capacity and dielectric constant.

Challenge 2 Hard

Design a capacitor circuit that incorporates at least two different dielectric materials and predict the total capacitance.

💡 Hint: Remember how dielectrics add capacitance in both series and parallel arrangements.
