Explanation:
Let us assume that the separation of plate be equal to d and the area of plates is . As the capacitance of capacitor is given as follows.
C =
It is known that the dielectric strength of air is as follows.
E =
Expression for maximum potential difference is that the capacitor can with stand is as follows.
dV = E × d
And, maximum charge that can be placed on the capacitor is as follows.
Q = CV
=
=
=
=
or, = 10.62 nC
Thus, we can conclude that charge on capacitor is 10.62 nC.
