$A$ parallel plate capacitor has plates of area $A$ and a separation distance of $100 \ mm$. It contains two dielectric layers: one with a dielectric constant of $10$ and a thickness of $6 \ mm$,and another with a dielectric constant of $5$ and a thickness of $4 \ mm$. Find the capacitance of the capacitor.

The space between the plates of a parallel plate capacitor is filled with a dielectric whose dielectric constant varies with distance $x$ as per the relation: $K(x) = K_0 + \lambda x$ (where $\lambda$ is a constant). The capacitance $C$ of the capacitor would be related to its vacuum capacitance $C_0$ by the relation:

$A$ parallel plate capacitor has a capacitance $C$ and the distance between the plates is $d$. If the space between the plates is filled with a dielectric material of dielectric constant $K$ as shown in the figure,find the new capacitance of the capacitor.

Two condensers of capacities $2C$ and $C$ are joined in parallel and charged up to potential $V$. The battery is then disconnected and the condenser of capacity $C$ is filled completely with a medium of dielectric constant $K$. The potential difference across the capacitors in the second case is

Assertion: When a battery remains connected,the electric potential energy increases if a dielectric material is inserted between the plates of a capacitor.
Reason: When a battery remains connected,the charge on the plates of the capacitor remains the same.
