$A$ parallel plate capacitor has plates of length $l$,width $w$,and separation $d$. It is connected to a battery of emf $V$. $A$ dielectric slab of the same thickness $d$ and dielectric constant $k = 4$ is being inserted between the plates. At what length $x$ of the slab inside the plates will the energy stored in the capacitor be two times the initial energy stored?

  • A
    $\frac{l}{4}$
  • B
    $\frac{l}{2}$
  • C
    $\frac{l}{3}$
  • D
    $\frac{2l}{3}$

Two point charges are kept in air with a separation $r$ between them. The force between them is $F_1$. If half of the space between the charges is filled with a dielectric of dielectric constant $K=4$,the force between them becomes $F_2$. If $1/3$ rd of the space between the charges is filled with a dielectric of dielectric constant $K=9$,then the ratio $F_1/F_2$ is:

Two metallic plates form a parallel plate capacitor. The distance between the plates is $d$. $A$ metal sheet of thickness $\frac{d}{2}$ and of area equal to the area of each plate is introduced between the plates. What will be the ratio of the new capacitance to the original capacitance of the capacitor?

$A$ parallel plate air capacitor has a capacitance of $100\,\mu F$. The plates are at a distance $d$ apart. If a slab of thickness $t$ $(t < d)$ and dielectric constant $K = 5$ is introduced between the parallel plates,then the new capacitance will be:
