$A$ capacitor of capacitance $2 \mu F$ is charged to $50 V$ and then disconnected from the source. Later,the gap between the plates of the capacitor is filled with a dielectric material. If the energy stored in the capacitor is decreased by $25 \%$ of its initial value,then the dielectric constant of the dielectric material is

  • A
    $2/3$
  • B
    $4/3$
  • C
    $3/4$
  • D
    $3/2$

The capacitance of a capacitor is $1\,pF$ when there is air between its plates. If the distance between the plates is doubled and the space between them is filled with wax,the new capacitance becomes $2\,pF$. What is the dielectric constant of the wax?

$A$ parallel plate capacitor has a capacity $80 \times 10^{-6} \,F$, when air is present between the plates. The volume between the plates is then completely filled with a dielectric slab of dielectric constant $20$. The capacitor is now connected to a battery of $30 \,V$ by wires. The dielectric slab is then removed. Then, the charge that passes now through the wire is

$A$ capacitor, when filled with a dielectric $K = 3$, has charge $Q_0$, voltage $V_0$, and electric field $E_0$. If the dielectric is replaced with another one having $K = 9$, the new values of charge, voltage, and field will be respectively:

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:

The capacitance of a capacitor becomes $\frac{7}{6}$ times the original value if a dielectric slab of thickness $t = \frac{2d}{3}$ is introduced between the plates, where $d$ is the distance of separation between the plates. The dielectric constant of the slab is
