The capacitance of the capacitor will be \boxed{8.9\times10^{-11}\text{ F}} or \boxed{89\text{ pF}}.

Explanation:

Given:

The diameter of the plates of the capacitor is 50\,\mu\text{m}.

The distance between the plates is 7\text{ nm}.

The dielectric constant of the medium is 9.0.

Concept:

The two conducting plates kept parallel to each other and placed at a particular distance from one another are considered to be the parallel plate capacitor.

The capacitance of the parallel plates capacitor formed by the two plates is given by the expression:

\boxed{C=\dfrac{K\epsilon_0A}{d}}

Here, C is the capacitance of the plates, K is the dielectric constant of the medium, \epsilon_0 is the permittivity of free space, A is the area of the plates and d is the distance between the plates.

The area of the plates is:

\begin{aligned}A&=\pi R^2\\&=3.14\times(25\times10^{-6})^2\\&=1.96\times10^{-9}\text{ m}^2\end{aligned}

Substitute the values in equation of capacitance.

\begin{aligned}C&=\dfrac{9.0\times8.85\times10^{-12}\times1.96\times10^{-9}}{7.0\times10^{-9}}\\&=8.9\times10^{-11}\text{ F}\\&=89\text{ pF}\end{aligned}

Thus, The capacitance of the capacitor will be \boxed{8.9\times10^{-11}\text{ F}} or \boxed{89\text{ pF}}.

:<span>  </span><span>Under the assumption that a cell is made up of two concentric spheres you find the surface are of the inside sphere which will be your A. 

You already have your separation and dielectric constant so just use the formula you stated towards the end of your question and you get 8.93x10^-11 Farads which is about 89pF</span>

Answer:

A. U_0 = \dfrac{\epsilon_0 A V^2}{2d}

B. U_1 = \dfrac{\epsilon_0 A V^2}{6d}

C. U_2 = \dfrac{K\epsilon_0 A V^2}{2d}

Explanation:

The capacitance of a capacitor is its ability to store charges. For parallel-plate capacitors, this ability depends the material between the plates, the common plate area and the plate separation. The relationship is

C=\dfrac{\epsilon A}{d}

C is the capacitance, A is the common plate area, d is the plate separation and \epsilon is the permittivity of the material between the plates.

For air or free space, \epsilon is \epsilon_0 called the permittivity of free space. In general, \epsilon=\epsilon_r \epsilon_0 where \epsilon_r is the relative permittivity or dielectric constant of the material between the plates. It is a factor that determines the strength of the material compared to air. In fact, for air or vacuum, \epsilon_r=1.

The energy stored in a capacitor is the average of the product of its charge and voltage.

U = \dfrac{QV}{2}

Its charge, Q, is related to its capacitance by Q=CV (this is the electrical definition of capacitance, a ratio of the charge to its voltage; the previous formula is the geometric definition). Substituting this in the formula for U,

U = \dfrac{CV^2}{2}

A. Substituting for C in U,

U_0 = \dfrac{\epsilon_0 A V^2}{2d}

B. When the distance is 3d,

U_1 = \dfrac{\epsilon_0 A V^2}{2\times3d}

U_1 = \dfrac{\epsilon_0 A V^2}{6d}

C. When the distance is restored but with a dielectric material of dielectric constant, K, inserted, we have

U_2 = \dfrac{K\epsilon_0 A V^2}{2d}
