Two identical parallel plate air capacitors are connected in series to a battery of emf $V$. If one of the capacitors is inserted in a liquid of dielectric constant $K$,then the potential difference across the other capacitor will become:

  • A
    $\frac{K-1}{KV}$
  • B
    $\frac{K+1}{KV}$
  • C
    $\frac{KV}{K+1}$
  • D
    $\frac{KV}{K-1}$

$A$ parallel plate capacitor has two layers of dielectrics as shown in the figure. This capacitor is connected across a battery. The ratio of the potential difference across the dielectric layers $(V_1/V_2)$ is:

In the figure,a capacitor is filled with dielectrics. The resultant capacitance is

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 $.5$)

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