In a parallel plate air capacitor, the distance between plates is reduced to one-fourth and the space between them is filled with a dielectric medium of constant $2$. If the initial capacity of the capacitor is $4 \mu F$, then its new capacity is: (in $\mu F$)

Two identical capacitors $1$ and $2$ are connected in series. Capacitor $2$ contains a dielectric slab of constant $K$ as shown. They are connected to a battery of emf $V_0 \text{ volts}$. The dielectric slab is then removed. Let $Q_1$ and $Q_2$ be the charges stored in the capacitors before removing the slab,and $Q'_1$ and $Q'_2$ be the values after removing the slab. Then:

Assertion : If the distance between parallel plates of a capacitor is halved and the dielectric constant is increased to three times its original value,then the capacitance becomes $6$ times.
Reason : The capacity of a capacitor does not depend upon the nature of the material between the plates.

$A$ 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 has a capacity of $80 \times 10^{-6} \ F$ when air is present between the plates. The volume between the plates is then completely filled with a dielectric slab of dielectric constant $K = 20$. The capacitor is connected to a battery of $30 \ V$. The dielectric slab is then removed while the capacitor remains connected to the battery. Calculate the charge that passes through the wire.
