$A$ capacitor is charged and then the battery is disconnected. If a dielectric slab is inserted between the plates,choose the correct statement.

  • A
    Charge increases,voltage decreases,and electrostatic potential energy increases.
  • B
    Charge remains constant,voltage increases,and electrostatic potential energy decreases.
  • C
    Charge remains constant,and both voltage and electrostatic potential energy decrease.
  • D

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

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

The capacity of an air-filled parallel plate capacitor is $C_0$. One-half of the space between the plates is filled with a dielectric of constant $K$ as shown in the figure. The new capacity becomes $C_n$. The ratio of $C_n$ to $C_0$ is:

$A$ parallel plate capacitor has a separation between plates of $0.885$ mm.

The relative permittivity of the insulating material is $\alpha \times 10^7$. The value of $\alpha$ is . . . . . . . (Take permittivity of free space $\epsilon_0 = 8.85 \times 10^{-12}$ $F$/m)

$A$ parallel plate capacitor with air between the plates has a capacitance of $9 \ pF$. The separation between its plates is $d$. The space between the plates is now filled with two dielectrics. One of the dielectrics has a dielectric constant $K_1 = 6$ and thickness $\frac{d}{3}$,while the other one has a dielectric constant $K_2 = 12$ and thickness $\frac{2d}{3}$. The capacitance of the capacitor is now ......... $pF$.
