The capacitance of a capacitor becomes $\frac{7}{6}$ times the original value if a dielectric slab of thickness $t = \frac{2d}{3}$ is introduced between the plates, where $d$ is the distance of separation between the plates. The dielectric constant of the slab is

  • A
    $\frac{9}{11}$
  • B
    $\frac{14}{11}$
  • C
    $\frac{8}{11}$
  • D
    $\frac{12}{11}$

Half of the space between the plates of a parallel-plate capacitor is filled with a dielectric material of dielectric constant $K$. The remaining half contains air. The capacitor is now given a charge $Q$. Then:

$A$ parallel plate capacitor has a potential of $20\,kV$ and a capacitance of $2 \times 10^{-4}\,\mu F$. If the area of the plate is $0.01\,m^2$ and the distance between the plates is $2\,mm$,find the dielectric constant of the medium.

$A$ parallel plate capacitor with plate area $A$ and plate separation $d$ has a capacitance of $4 \, \mu F$. The new capacitance of the system if half of the space between them is filled with a dielectric material of dielectric constant $K = 3$ (as shown in figure) will be .........$ \mu F$.

Two parallel plates with dielectric slabs placed between them are as shown in the figure. The resultant capacity of the capacitor will be: [$A$ = area of plate,$t_1, t_2, t_3$ are thicknesses of dielectric slabs,$k_1, k_2, k_3$ are dielectric constants.]

Two parallel plate air capacitors of the same capacity $C$ are connected in series to a battery of emf $E$. Then one of the capacitors is completely filled with a dielectric material of constant $K$. The change in the effective capacitance of the series combination is
