$A$ capacitor is half-filled with a dielectric $(K=2)$ as shown in Figure $A$. If the same capacitor is to be filled with the same dielectric as shown in Figure $B$, what would be the thickness $t$ of the dielectric so that the capacitor still has the same capacity?

  • A
    $2d/3$
  • B
    $3d/2$
  • C
    $3d/4$
  • D

When a slab of dielectric material is introduced between the parallel plates of a capacitor which remains connected to a battery,then the charge on the plates relative to the earlier charge:

$A$ parallel plate capacitor is made of two square parallel plates of area $A$,and separated by a distance $d << \sqrt{A}$. The capacitor is connected to a battery with potential $V$ and allowed to fully charge. The battery is then disconnected. $A$ square metal conducting slab also with area $A$ but thickness $d/2$ is then fully inserted between the plates,so that it is always parallel to the plates. How much work has been done on the metal slab by an external agent while it is being inserted?
