I want to know the answer to the following question:
In a realistic model of a capacitor, where else besides between the dielectric between the conductors might an electric field be found?
All the background I'm provided with is that "In reality there are fringing fields outside the dielectric, for example between the sides of the capacitor plates, which will increase the effective capacitance of the capacitor.". Is that enough to answer the question?
Answer: yes
