Consider a flat plate or a plane wall with a thickness L and long cylinder of radius r0. Both of these are made of materials such that they can be treated as lumped capacitances (Bi<0.1). Show that in each case, the characteristic length ? c, defined as ? c=(V/As), can be approximated as (L/2) and (r0/2) respectively.
