What happens to a system of capacitors when a dielectric is inserted into one of them?

Simple, the charge measured in coulombs is the current in amperes times the time in seconds, so Q=I*t. since C3 is connected in series with both C1 and C2 this means that any current flowing through C …

Do the molecules inside a dielectric physically move when the dielectric is polarized by an ...

Today a colleague and I had a heated debate over whether, when an external electric field is applied across a dielectric, the molecules in the dielectric actually move/rotate (flip to align with the electric … of the molecules is what causes the dielectric to "slowly" become polarized over time, with some time constant. …
