In a parallel plate capacitor,the separation between the plates is $3\,mm$ with air between them. Now,a $1\,mm$ thick layer of a material of dielectric constant $K = 2$ is introduced between the plates,due to which the capacity increases. In order to bring its capacity back to the original value,the separation between the plates must be increased to......$mm$. (in $.5$)

Two capacitors,each having capacitance $40\,\mu F$,are connected in series. The space between the plates of one of the capacitors is filled with a dielectric material of dielectric constant $K$ such that the equivalent capacitance of the system becomes $24\,\mu F$. The value of $K$ is:

In the given figure,a capacitor is formed by placing a compound dielectric between the plates of a parallel plate capacitor. The expression for the capacity of the said capacitor will be (Given area of plate $= A$):

$A$ parallel plate capacitor having a separation between the plates $d$,plate area $A$,and material with dielectric constant $K$ has capacitance $C_0$. Now,one-third of the material is replaced by another material with dielectric constant $2K$,such that effectively there are two capacitors: one with area $\frac{1}{3}A$,dielectric constant $2K$,and another with area $\frac{2}{3}A$ and dielectric constant $K$. If the capacitance of this new capacitor is $C$,then $\frac{C}{C_0}$ 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 air capacitor is charged up to $100 \,V$. $A$ plate $2 \,mm$ thick is inserted between the plates. Then, to maintain the same potential difference, the distance between the plates is increased by $1.6 \,mm$. The dielectric constant of the thick plate is
