In a parallel plate capacitor setup,the plate area of the capacitor is $2 \, m^{2}$ and the plates are separated by $1 \, m$. If the space between the plates is filled with a dielectric material of thickness $0.5 \, m$ and area $2 \, m^{2}$ (see figure),the capacitance of the setup will be $......... \, \varepsilon_{0}$. (Dielectric constant of the material $= 3.2$) (Round off to the nearest integer).

$A$ parallel plate capacitor has a capacity $80 \times 10^{-6} \ F$ when air is present between its plates. The space between the plates is filled with a dielectric slab of dielectric constant $20$. The capacitor is now connected to a battery of $30 \ V$. The dielectric slab is then removed. The charge passing through the wire is:
