An air capacitor is connected to a battery. The effect of filling the space between the plates with a dielectric is to increase:

  • A
    The charge and the potential difference
  • B
    The potential difference and the electric field
  • C
    The electric field and the capacitance
  • D
    The charge and the capacitance

In a parallel plate capacitor,the separation between plates is $3x$. This separation is filled by two layers of dielectrics,in which one layer has thickness $x$ and dielectric constant $3k$,and the other layer has thickness $2x$ and dielectric constant $5k$. If the plates of the capacitor are connected to a battery,then the ratio of the potential difference across the dielectric layers is

$A$ parallel plate capacitor has a parallel sheet of copper inserted between and parallel to the two plates,without touching the plates. The capacity of the capacitor after the introduction of the copper sheet is:
