The plates of a parallel plate capacitor are separated by a distance $d$ with air as the medium between them. $A$ dielectric slab of dielectric constant $K = 3$ is introduced between the plates so as to increase the capacity by $50 \%$. The thickness of the dielectric slab is

  • A
    $\frac{d}{2}$
  • B
    $\frac{d}{3}$
  • C
    $\frac{d}{5}$
  • D

$A$ 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

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?

Two identical condensers $M$ and $N$ are connected in series with a battery. The space between the plates of $M$ is completely filled with a dielectric medium of dielectric constant $8$,and a copper plate of thickness $d/2$ is introduced between the plates of $N$ ($d$ is the distance between the plates). Then the potential differences across $M$ and $N$ are,respectively,in the ratio:

The capacity and the energy stored in a parallel plate condenser with air between its plates are respectively $C_0$ and $W_0$. If the air is replaced by glass (dielectric constant $K = 5$) between the plates,the capacity of the plates and the energy stored in it will respectively be

After charging a capacitor,the battery is removed. Now,by placing a dielectric slab between the plates :-
