    Vacuum is created between two spheres
  • B
    Dielectric material is filled between the two spheres
  • C
    The space between two spheres is increased
  • D

The capacitance of a parallel plate capacitor with air as medium is $6\, \mu F$. With the introduction of a dielectric medium,the capacitance becomes $30\, \mu F$. The permittivity of the medium is..........$C^{2} N^{-1} m^{-2}$.
$(\varepsilon_{0} = 8.85 \times 10^{-12} C^{2} N^{-1} m^{-2})$

$A$ parallel plate capacitor having air as the dielectric medium is charged by a potential difference of $V$ volt. After disconnecting the battery,the distance between the plates of the capacitor is increased using an insulated handle. As a result,the potential difference between the plates . . . . . . .

In a capacitor of capacitance $20\,\mu F$,the distance between the plates is $2\,mm$. If a dielectric slab of width $1\,mm$ and dielectric constant $2$ is inserted between the plates,then the new capacitance is......$\mu F$.

$A$ parallel plate capacitor having capacity $C_0$ is charged to $V_0$. With the battery disconnected,if the separation between the plates is doubled,then the energy stored in it is $E_1$. Instead,if the separation between the plates is doubled with the battery in connection,the energy stored in it is $E_2$. Then the value of $\frac{E_2}{E_1}$ is

The distance between the plates of a parallel plate capacitor is $8\,mm$ and the potential difference $(P.D.)$ is $120\,V$. If a $6\,mm$ thick slab of dielectric constant $K = 6$ is introduced between its plates,then:
