$A$ parallel plate air capacitor has a capacitance of $100\,\mu F$. The plates are at a distance $d$ apart. If a slab of thickness $t$ $(t < d)$ and dielectric constant $K = 5$ is introduced between the parallel plates,then the new capacitance will be:

  • A
    $100\,\mu F$
  • B
    $> 100\,\mu F$ but $< 500\,\mu F$
  • C
    $500\,\mu F$
  • D
    $< 100\,\mu F$

$A$ parallel plate capacitor has a capacity $80 \times 10^{-6} \,F$, when air is present between the plates. The volume between the plates is then completely filled with a dielectric slab of dielectric constant $20$. The capacitor is now connected to a battery of $30 \,V$ by wires. The dielectric slab is then removed. Then, the charge that passes now through the wire is

$A$ parallel-plate capacitor is connected to a resistanceless circuit with a battery until the capacitor is fully charged. The battery is then disconnected from the circuit and the plates of the capacitor are moved to half of their original separation using insulated gloves. Let $V_{new}$ be the potential difference across the capacitor plates when the plates have moved. Let $V_{old}$ be the potential difference across the capacitor plates when they were connected to the battery. Find the ratio $\frac{V_{new}}{V_{old}}$.

The force of repulsion between two identical positive charges when kept with a separation $r$ in air is $F$. Half the gap between the two charges is filled by a dielectric slab of dielectric constant $K=4$. Then the new force of repulsion between those two charges becomes:

The space between the plates of a parallel plate capacitor is halved and a dielectric medium of relative permittivity $10$ is introduced between the plates. The ratio of the final and initial capacitances of the capacitor is

If half of the space between the plates of a parallel plate capacitor is filled with a medium of dielectric constant $4$,the capacitance is $C_1$. If one third of the space between the plates of the capacitor is filled with the medium of dielectric constant $4$,the capacitance is $C_2$. If in both cases,the dielectric is placed parallel to the plates of the capacitor,then $C_1: C_2=$
