Answer:
k = 2.279
Explanation:
Given:
Magnitude of charge on each plate, Q = 172 μC
Now,
the capacitance, C of a capacitor is given as:
C = Q/V
where,
V is the potential difference
Thus, the capacitance due to the charge of 172 μC will be
C = 
Now, when the when the additional charge is accumulated
the capacitance (C') will be
C' = 
or
C' = 
now the dielectric constant (k) is given as:

substituting the values, we get

or
k = 2.279
Answer:
Approximate height of the building is 23213 meters.
Explanation:
Let the height of the building be represented by h.
0.02 radians = 0.02 × 
= 0.02 x (180/
)
0.02 radians = 1.146°
10.5 km = 10500 m
Applying the trigonometric function, we have;
Tan θ = 
So that,
Tan 1.146° = 
⇒ h = Tan 1.146° x 10500
= 2.21074 x 10500
= 23212.77
h = 23213 m
The approximate height of the building is 23213 m.
