When a capacitor is filled with a dielectric constant $K = 3$,the charge is $Q_0$,voltage is $V_0$,and electric field is $E_0$. If the capacitor is now filled with a dielectric constant $K = 9$,what will be the new charge,voltage,and electric field respectively?

For changing the capacitance of a given parallel plate capacitor,a dielectric material of dielectric constant $K$ is used,which has the same area as the plates of the capacitor. The thickness of the dielectric slab is $\frac{3}{4} d$,where $d$ is the separation between the plates of the parallel plate capacitor. The new capacitance $(C')$ in terms of original capacitance $(C_{0})$ is given by the following relation:

$A$ parallel plate capacitor having capacitance $12 \, pF$ is charged by a battery to a potential difference of $10 \, V$ between its plates. The charging battery is now disconnected and a porcelain slab of dielectric constant $6.5$ is slipped between the plates. The work done by the capacitor on the slab is.......$pJ$

$A$ capacitor is charged by a battery and the energy stored is $U$. Now,the battery is removed and the distance between the plates is increased to four times its original value. The new energy stored becomes:

$A$ capacitor is charged. When a dielectric slab of thickness $t = 4 \times 10^{-5} \ m$ is inserted between the plates,the distance between the plates has to be increased by $d' = 3.5 \times 10^{-5} \ m$ to maintain the same voltage. What is the dielectric constant $K$ of the dielectric?
