$A$ parallel plate capacitor is filled with two dielectrics as shown in the figure. The area of each plate is $A \; m^2$ and the separation between the plates is $t \; m$. The dielectric constants are $k_1$ and $k_2$ respectively. Its capacitance in farad will be:

  • A
    $\frac{\varepsilon_0 A}{t}(k_1 + k_2)$
  • B
    $\frac{\varepsilon_0 A}{t} \cdot \frac{k_1 + k_2}{2}$
  • C
    $\frac{2\varepsilon_0 A}{t}(k_1 + k_2)$
  • D
    $\frac{\varepsilon_0 A}{t} \cdot \frac{k_1 - k_2}{2}$

Consider a parallel plate capacitor with plates in the shape of a square in the $XY$-plane. The gap between the plates is filled with a dielectric material. The dielectric constant $k$ varies along the $X$-axis as $k(x) = \left[1 + \left(\frac{x}{L}\right)^\alpha\right]$,where $\alpha$ is a constant.
