$A$ capacitor, when filled with a dielectric $K = 3$, has charge $Q_0$, voltage $V_0$, and electric field $E_0$. If the dielectric is replaced with another one having $K = 9$, the new values of charge, voltage, and field will be respectively:

Between the plates of a parallel plate capacitor,a plate of thickness $t_1$ and dielectric constant $k_1$ is placed. In the rest of the space,there is another plate of thickness $t_2$ and dielectric constant $k_2$. The potential difference across the capacitor will be

$A$ parallel plate capacitor has a capacity of $80 \times 10^{-6} \ F$ when air is present between the plates. The volume between the plates is then completely filled with a dielectric slab of dielectric constant $K = 20$. The capacitor is connected to a battery of $30 \ V$. The dielectric slab is then removed while the capacitor remains connected to the battery. Calculate the charge that passes through the wire.

The distance between the plates of a parallel plate capacitor is $d$. $A$ metal plate of thickness $d/2$ is introduced between the plates. The capacitance will then be

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?
