A piezoelectric crystal 1cm2 in area and 0.1cm thick has been subjected to a force. Two metal electrodes measure the changes in the crystal. Young’s modulus of the material = 9×1010Pa. Charge sensitivity is 2pC/N, relative permittivity 5, and the applied force is 0.01N.

Find the voltage across the electrodes.
Find the change in crystal thickness.

What will be an ideal response?


Use the equations:





For the calculation of change in thickness, use the formula,
