The capacitance of a parallel-plate capacitor in vacuum is given by
C= \frac{A \epsilon_0}{d}
where
A is the area of each plate
d is the separation between the plates
\epsilon_0 = 8.85 \cdot 10^{-12} F/m is the electric permittivity in vacuum

For the capacitor in our problem, the plates are circular, with a diameter of d=4.0 cm, so their radius is r=2.0 cm=0.02 m and their area is
A=\pi r^2 =\pi (0.02 m)^2 = 1.26 \cdot 10^{-3} m^2
while the separation between the plates is
d=0.50 mm=5 \cdot 10^{-4} m

Therefore the capacitance is
C= \frac{A\epsilon_0 }{d}= \frac{(1.26 \cdot 10^{-3} m^2)(8.85 \cdot 10^{-12} F/m)}{5 \cdot 10^{-4}m}=2.23 \cdot 10^{-11}F

Determine the density of a rectangular piece of concrete that measures 3.7 cm by 2.1 cm by 5.8 cm and has a mass of 43.8 grams.
Novay_Z [31]
It is customary to work in SI units.

Calculate the volume of the concrete.
V = 3.7*2.1*5.8 cm³ = 45.066 cm³ = 45.066 x 10 ⁻⁶ m³

The mass is  43.8 g = 43.8 x 10⁻³ kg

The density is mass/volume.
Density = (43.8 x 10⁻³ kg)/(45.066 x 10⁻⁶ m³) = 971.9 kg/m³

Answer: 971.9 kg/m³
