What fraction of the charge will flow across the air gap

Reference no: EM13290678

Air isn't a perfect electric insulator, but it has a very high resistivity of 3x10^13 omega*m. Dry air has a resistivity of approximately . A capacitor has square plates 10cm on a side separated by 1.2mm of dry air. If the capacitor is charged to 250V, what fraction of the charge will flow across the air gap in 1minute? Make the approximation that the potential difference doesn't change as the charge flows.
