Two identical parallel plate air capacitors are connected in series to a battery of e.m.f. $V$. If one of the capacitors is inserted in a liquid of dielectric constant $K$,then the potential difference across the other capacitor will become:

  • A
    $\frac{K}{V(K+1)}$
  • B
    $\frac{KV}{K+1}$
  • C
    $\frac{K+1}{KV}$
  • D
    $\frac{K}{V(1-K)}$

$A$ capacitor stores $60\,\mu C$ charge when connected across a battery. When the gap between the plates is filled with a dielectric,an additional charge of $120\,\mu C$ flows through the battery. The dielectric constant of the dielectric inserted is

$A$ parallel-plate capacitor is connected to a resistanceless circuit with a battery until the capacitor is fully charged. The battery is then disconnected from the circuit and the plates of the capacitor are moved to half of their original separation using insulated gloves. Let $V_{new}$ be the potential difference across the capacitor plates when the plates have moved. Let $V_{old}$ be the potential difference across the capacitor plates when they were connected to the battery. Find the ratio $\frac{V_{new}}{V_{old}}$.
