The area of the plates of a parallel plate capacitor is $A$ and the gap between them is $d$. The gap is filled with a non-homogeneous dielectric whose dielectric constant varies with the distance $y$ from one plate as: $K = \lambda \sec(\pi y/2d)$,where $\lambda$ is a dimensionless constant. The capacitance of this capacitor is

The insulated plates of a charged parallel plate capacitor (with small separation between the plates) are approaching each other due to electrostatic attraction. Assuming no other force to be operative and no radiation taking place, which of the following graphs approximately shows the variation with time $(t)$ of the potential difference $(V)$ between the plates?

$A$ capacitor of capacitance $C$ with a distance $d$ between its plates is connected to a battery of $V$ volts. What is the force acting between the two plates?

The potential difference between two plates of a parallel plate capacitor is $2V$. As shown in the figure, electrons are placed at point $P$ and $Q$. So,

$A$ parallel plate air capacitor is charged to a potential difference of $V$ volts. After disconnecting the charging battery,the distance between the plates of the capacitor is increased using an insulating handle. As a result,the potential difference between the plates:
