The capacitance of a spherical capacitor in air is $50 \,\mu F$. When it is immersed in oil,its capacitance becomes $110 \,\mu F$. Calculate the dielectric constant of the oil.

$A$ parallel plate capacitor of capacitance $C$ has spacing $d$ between two plates having area $A$. The region between the plates is filled with $N$ dielectric layers,parallel to its plates,each with thickness $\delta = \frac{d}{N}$. The dielectric constant of the $m^{\text{th}}$ layer is $K_m = K(1 + \frac{m}{N})$. For a very large $N (> 10^3)$,the capacitance $C$ is $\alpha \left( \frac{K \varepsilon_0 A}{d \ln 2} \right)$. The value of $\alpha$ will be. . . . . . . .
