$A$ frictionless dielectric plate $S$ is placed on a frictionless table $T$. $A$ charged parallel plate capacitor $C$ (whose plates are also frictionless) is kept near it. The plate $S$ is partially between the plates of the capacitor. When the plate $S$ is released, what happens?

The capacitance of a parallel plate capacitor is $5\, \mu F$. When a glass slab of thickness equal to the separation between the plates is introduced between the plates,the potential difference reduces to $1/8$ of the original value. The dielectric constant of glass is

The outer sphere of a spherical air capacitor is earthed. For increasing its capacitance:

The distance between the plates of a parallel plate capacitor is $0.05\, m$. An electric field of $3 \times 10^4\, V/m$ is established between the plates. The capacitor is disconnected from the battery,and an uncharged metal plate of thickness $0.01\, m$ is inserted. If a dielectric slab of dielectric constant $K = 2$ is inserted instead of the metal plate,what will be the potential difference in $kV$?
