Feb 21 at 4:31 comment added William Banquier @Puk, I didn't realize permittivity in general was a function of temperature, while on some level this makes sense to me I will need to research more about this. Thank you so much for your help.

Feb 21 at 4:24 comment added William Banquier Thank you for the link @ManRow, that was super interesting, and very helpful, I didn't think about how the dipoles would align like that

Feb 21 at 4:16 comment added Puk @WilliamBanquier Yes, dielectric constant (permittivity) is a function of temperature in general. I don't know what this dependence looks like for specific materials, but a key term is "temperature coefficient of capacitance" if you want to delve deeper into that.

Feb 21 at 4:08 comment added William Banquier With the vacuum as the insulator. Thank you. Would the answer change if it was a dielectric, if so what materials would result in different results on the capacitor?
Feb 21 at 3:58 comment added Puk Are you considering a capacitor with vacuum as the insulator or some other dielectric?
