Half of the space between the plates of a parallel plate capacitor is filled with a medium of dielectric constant $K$ parallel to the plates. If the initial capacitance is $C$,then the new capacitance will be:

  • A
    $2KC/(1+K)$
  • B
    $C(K+1)/2$
  • C
    $CK/(1+K)$
  • D
    $KC$

$A$ parallel plate capacitor has a capacity $80 \times 10^{-6} \ F$ when air is present between its plates. The space between the plates is filled with a dielectric slab of dielectric constant $20$. The capacitor is now connected to a battery of $30 \ V$. The dielectric slab is then removed. The charge passing through the wire is:

$A$ capacitor has some dielectric between its plates and the capacitor is connected to a $D.C.$ 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.
