This study guide covers dielectrics and their effect on capacitance. It explains what dielectrics are, the concept of dielectric constant (k), and how dielectrics increase capacitance through polarization. The guide also includes updated capacitance equations, practice questions involving Gauss's Law and cylindrical capacitors, and key exam tips.
