You are asked to construct a capacitor having a capacitance of around 1 nF and a breakdown potential in excess of 10,000V.

You are asked to construct a capacitor having a capacitance of around 1 nF and a breakdown potential in excess of 10,000V. You're thinking of using the sides of a tall Pyrex laboratory cylindrical beaker. You can line the inside and outside of the sides of the beaker with aluminum foil to act as plates. The Pyrex of the beaker sides will keep the foil in place and with the added advantage of acting as a dielectric.The height of your beaker is 15 cm. Its inside radius is 3.5 cm and its outter radius is 3.72 cm.a) What is the capacitance of your homemade capacitor?b) What is the breakdown potential of your capacitor?V
