What is limited by the ratio of its surface area to its volume in cells

The total amount of energy contained in an object

Students in an introductory physics lab are performing an experiment with a parallel-plate capacitor made of two circular aluminum plates, each 11 cm in diameter, separated by 1.0 cm. how much charge can be added to each of the plates before a spark jumps between the two plates? for such flat electrodes, assume that value of 3×106n/c of the field causes a spark.

Apoint charge +q is at the origin. a spherical gaussian surface centered at the origin encloses +q. so does a cubical surface centered at the origin and with edges parallel to the axes. select "true" or "false" for each statement below. the electric flux through the spherical surface is greater than that through the cubical surface. suppose (for this statement only), that q is moved from the origin but is still within both the surfaces. the flux through both surfaces remains unchanged. the area vector and the e-field vector point in the same direction for all points on the spherical surface. the e-field at all points on the spherical surface is equal due to spherical symmetry. the flux through the spherical gaussian surface is independent of its radius.
