Between the plates of a parallel plate capacitor,a plate of thickness $t_1$ and dielectric constant $k_1$ is placed. In the rest of the space,there is another plate of thickness $t_2$ and dielectric constant $k_2$. The potential difference across the capacitor will be

  • A
    $\frac{Q}{A\varepsilon_0} \left( \frac{t_1}{k_1} + \frac{t_2}{k_2} \right)$
  • B
    $\frac{\varepsilon_0 Q}{A} \left( \frac{t_1}{k_1} + \frac{t_2}{k_2} \right)$
  • C
    $\frac{Q}{A\varepsilon_0} \left( \frac{k_1}{t_1} + \frac{k_2}{t_2} \right)$
  • D
    $\frac{\varepsilon_0 Q}{A} (k_1 t_1 + k_2 t_2)$

Consider the arrangement shown in the figure. The total energy stored is $U_1$ when the key $K$ is closed. Now,the key $K$ is opened,and two dielectric slabs of relative permittivity $\epsilon_r$ are introduced between the plates of the two capacitors. The slabs fit tightly between the plates. The total energy stored is now $U_2$. Then,the ratio $U_1/U_2$ is:

Two parallel plates have equal and opposite charges. When the space between them is evacuated,the electric field between the plates is $2 \times 10^5 \ V/m$. When the space is filled with a dielectric,the electric field becomes $1 \times 10^5 \ V/m$. Find the dielectric constant of the dielectric material.

Two parallel plate air capacitors of the same capacity $C$ are connected in series to a battery of emf $E$. Then one of the capacitors is completely filled with a dielectric material of constant $K$. The change in the effective capacitance of the series combination is

Two identical capacitors $1$ and $2$ are connected in series to a battery as shown in the figure. Capacitor $2$ contains a dielectric slab of dielectric constant $k$ as shown. $Q_1$ and $Q_2$ are the charges stored in the capacitors. Now the dielectric slab is removed and the corresponding charges are $Q'_1$ and $Q'_2$. Then:
