$A$ parallel plate capacitor with oil between the plates (dielectric constant of oil $K = 2$) has a capacitance $C$. If the oil is removed,then the capacitance of the capacitor becomes:

  • A
    $\sqrt{2} C$
  • B
    $2C$
  • C
    $\frac{C}{\sqrt{2}}$
  • D
    $\frac{C}{2}$

Two parallel plate capacitors of capacity $C$ and $3C$ are connected in parallel and charged to a potential difference of $18V$. The battery is then disconnected,and the space between the plates of the capacitor of capacity $C$ is completely filled with a material of dielectric constant $K=9$. The final potential difference across the combination of capacitors will be $V^{\prime}$. Find $V^{\prime}$. (in $V$)

When a capacitor is filled with a dielectric constant $K = 3$,the charge is $Q_0$,voltage is $V_0$,and electric field is $E_0$. If the capacitor is now filled with a dielectric constant $K = 9$,what will be the new charge,voltage,and electric field respectively?

The capacitance of an air-filled parallel plate capacitor is $10 \, pF$. The separation between the plates is doubled and the space between the plates is then filled with wax,giving the capacitance a new value of $40 \times 10^{-12} \, F$. The dielectric constant of wax is:

Two metallic plates form a parallel plate capacitor. The distance between the plates is $d$. $A$ metal sheet of thickness $\frac{d}{2}$ and of area equal to the area of each plate is introduced between the plates. What will be the ratio of the new capacitance to the original capacitance of the capacitor?
