What are dielectrics made from
polar molecules
How do polar molecules work
align with the created e field
What does each polar molecule have
own electric field
What does the e-field depend on polar molecules
permitivity of the dielectric
What do the polar molecules field do
oppose the field formed by the capacitor
Since the field is opposes what happens to the capacitor field
reduces the field
What happens to the potential difference required to charge capacitor as e field decreases
potential difference decreases since e-field strength decreases
What happens to capacitance due to decrease in V
Capacitance increases since C = Q/V
