In a parallel plate capacitor,the separation between the plates is $3\,mm$ with air between them. Now,a $1\,mm$ thick layer of a material of dielectric constant $K = 2$ is introduced between the plates,due to which the capacity increases. In order to bring its capacity back to the original value,the separation between the plates must be increased to......$mm$. (in $.5$)

The area of the plates of a parallel plate capacitor is $A$ and the distance between the plates is $10\,mm$. There are two dielectric sheets in it,one of dielectric constant $10$ and thickness $6\,mm$ and the other of dielectric constant $5$ and thickness $4\,mm$. The capacity of the capacitor is

$A$ parallel plate capacitor is made of two plates of length $l$,width $w$ and separated by distance $d$. $A$ dielectric slab (dielectric constant $K$) that fits exactly between the plates is held near the edge of the plates. It is pulled into the capacitor by a force $F = -\frac{\partial U}{\partial x}$ where $U$ is the energy of the capacitor when the dielectric is inside the capacitor up to distance $x$ (See figure). If the charge on the capacitor is $Q$,then the force on the dielectric when it is near the edge is

The capacitance of an air-filled parallel plate capacitor is $9 \ pF$. If the space between the plates is filled with two dielectric slabs of thickness $d/3$ with dielectric constant $K_1 = 3$ and thickness $2d/3$ with dielectric constant $K_2 = 6$,the new capacitance will be ...... $pF$.
