The plate separation of a parallel-plate waveguide is 0.5 mm and the plate's width is 5 mm. The dielectric filling is polystyrene (Table 4-2 on page 204 contains data for polystyrene among other dielectrics). The waveguide is used at 25 GHz.

a) List all modes that are excited in the waveguide.

b) Compute the maximum average power that the guide can safely be used to transmit. Use a safety factor of 20.

Answer: a) TEM,   b) 5.35 kW

please show all work.

Answer #1

a)

relative permittivity of polystyrene

proove the frequency of propagation is lower than the lowest frequency at n=1

Thus, only TEM modes are excited

b)

The breakdown Electric field of polystyrene:

Power is:

A parallel-plate air capacitor of area A= 14.0 cm2 and plate separation d= 2.20 mm is charged by a battery to a voltage 56.0 V. If a dielectric material with κ = 4.00 is inserted so that it fills the volume between the plates (with the capacitor still connected to the battery), how much additional charge will flow from the battery onto the positive plate?
