why does electric field intensity between the plates of capacitor descreases on introducing insulating plate b/w


the plates of capacitor???

Becoz permittivity of a medium is less than that of vacuum/air.

The quality of a person's life is in direct proportion to their commitment to excellence, regardless of their chosen field of endeavor.

It is during our darkest moments that we must focus to see the light.

this is because opposite charge is induced at the surface of of insulating plate ..and it has electric field in direction opposite to the original one..hence the final electric field indie the plates decreases..

@ tarin

i think permittivity of a medium >of vacuum/air.





absolute permittivity of medium = k* permittivity of vaccum .......right ??

k >1

so permittivity of a medium >of vacuum/air.



m i right ??

n also electric field intensity between plates

= charge density (sigma) /permittivity

n permittivity of a medium > of vacuum/air.



therefore
electric field intensity between the plates of capacitor descreases on introducing insulating plate b/w the plates of capacitor

when we insert the insulating plate the electrons inside the insulating plate arrange themselves in such a fashion that they create a field

in the direction opposite to the filed that was in capacitor before inserting the plate

hence the resultant field decreases coz of generation of field in

opposite direction...

Capacity is er times more.


it is not important where u stand, but in which direction u are moving

du to the induced charges in the insulator, the net force per charge (electric field) decreases..
