A parallel plate capacitor is made of two dielectric blocks in series. One of the blocks has thickness d1 and dielectric constant K1 and the other has thickness d2 and dielectric constant K2, as shown in the figure. This arrangement can be thought of as a dielectric slab of thickness d = d1 + d2 and effective dielectric constant K. K is:  

                                 

1. \(\frac{\mathrm{K}_{1} \mathrm{~d}_{1}+\mathrm{K}_{2} \mathrm{~d}_{2}}{\mathrm{~d}_{1}+\mathrm{d}_{1}}\) 2. \(\frac{\mathrm{K}_{1} \mathrm{~d}_{1}+\mathrm{K}_{2} \mathrm{~d}_{2}}{\mathrm{~K}_{1}+\mathrm{K}_{2}}\)
3. \(\frac{\mathrm{K}_{1} \mathrm{~K}_{2}\left(\mathrm{~d}_{1}+\mathrm{d}_{2}\right)}{\mathrm{K}_{1} \mathrm{~d}_{2}+\mathrm{K}_{2} \mathrm{~d}_{1}}\) 4. \(\frac{2 \mathrm{~K}_{1} \mathrm{~K}_{2}}{\mathrm{~K}_{1}+\mathrm{K}_{2}}\)

A parallel plate capacitor has capacitance \(C\). If it is equally filled with parallel layers of materials of dielectric constants \(K_1\) and \(K_2\), its capacity becomes \(C_1\). The ratio of \(C_1\) to \(C\) is:

1. \(K_1 + K_2\) 2. \(\frac{K_{1} K_{2}}{K_{1}-K_{2}}\)
3. \(\frac{K_{1}+K_{2}}{K_{1} K_{2}}\) 4. \(\frac{2 K_{1} K_{2}}{K_{1}+K_{2}}\)
