A parallel plate capacitor having crosssectional area $A$ and separation $d$ has air in between the plates. Now an insulating slab of same area but thickness $d/2$ is inserted between the plates as shown in figure having dielectric constant $K (=4) .$ The ratio of new capacitance to its original capacitance will be,
$4:1$
$2:1$
$8:5$
$6:5$
Voltage rating of a parallel plate capacitor is $500\,V$. Its dielectric can withstand a maximum electric field of ${10^6}\,\frac{V}{m}$. The plate area is $10^{-4}\, m^2$ . What is the dielectric constant if the capacitance is $15\, pF$ ? (given ${ \in _0} = 8.86 \times {10^{ - 12}}\,{C^2}\,/N{m^2}$)
A capacitor is charged by using a battery which is then disconnected. A dielectric slab is then slipped between the plates, which results in
A capacitor has some dielectric between its plates and the capacitor is connected to a $\mathrm{D.C.}$ source. The battery is now disconnected and then the dielectric is removed. State whether the capacitance, the energy stored in it, electric field, charge stored and the voltage will increase, decrease or remain constant.
A parallel plate air capacitor has a capacitance $C$. When it is half filled with a dielectric of dielectric constant $5$, the percentage increase in the capacitance will be.....$\%$
Two identical parallel plate capacitors, of capacitance $C$ each, have plates of area $A$, separated by a distance $d$. The space between the plates of the two capacitors, is filled with three dielectrics, of equal thickness and dielectric constants $K_1$ , $K_2$ and $K_3$ . The first capacitor is filled as shown in fig. $I$, and the second one is filled as shown in fig. $II$. If these two modified capacitors are charged by the same potential $V$, the ratio of the energy stored in the two, would be ( $E_1$ refers to capacitor $(I)$ and $E_2$ to capacitor $(II)$)
