    $\frac{12}{35} \varepsilon_0 A$
  • B
    $\frac{2}{3} \varepsilon_0 A$
  • C
    $\frac{5000}{7} \varepsilon_0 A$
  • D

When a parallel plate capacitor is charged up to $95 \ V$,its capacitance is $C$. If a dielectric slab of thickness $2 \ mm$ is inserted between the plates and the distance between the plates is increased by $1.6 \ mm$ such that the same potential difference is maintained,the dielectric constant of the material (slab) is:

In a parallel plate capacitor with air between the plates,each plate has an area of $6 \times 10^{-3} \, m^{2}$ and the distance between the plates is $3 \, mm$. The capacitance of the capacitor is $17.71 \, pF$. If this capacitor is connected to a $100 \, V$ supply,and a $3 \, mm$ thick mica sheet (of dielectric constant $k = 6$) is inserted between the plates,calculate the new capacitance,charge,and potential difference in the following cases:

$(b)$ After the supply is disconnected.

$A$ dielectric slab of thickness $d$ is inserted in a parallel plate capacitor whose negative plate is at $x = 0$ and positive plate is at $x = 3d$. The slab is equidistant from the plates. The capacitor is given some charge. As one goes from $x = 0$ to $x = 3d$:

$A$ capacitor of capacity $C$ is connected to a cell of $V \, \text{volt}$. Now,a dielectric slab of dielectric constant $\epsilon_r$ is inserted into it while keeping the cell connected. Then:

Two identical parallel plate air capacitors are connected in series to a battery of e.m.f. $V$. If one of the capacitors is inserted in a liquid of dielectric constant $K$,then the potential difference across the other capacitor will become:
