The capacitance of a parallel plate capacitor with air as a medium is \(6~\mu\text{F}.\) With the introduction of a dielectric medium, the capacitance becomes \(30~\mu\text{F}.\) The permittivity of the medium is:
\(\left(\varepsilon_0=8.85 \times 10^{-12} ~\text{C}^2 \text{N}^{-1} \text{m}^{-2}\right )\)
1. | \(1.77 \times 10^{-12}~ \text{C}^2 \text{N}^{-1} \text{m}^{-2}\) | 2. | \(0.44 \times 10^{-10} ~\text{C}^2 \text{N}^{-1} \text{m}^{-2}\) |
3. | \(5.00 ~\text{C}^2 \text{N}^{-1} \text{m}^{-2}\) | 4. | \(0.44 \times 10^{-13} ~\text{C}^2 \text{N}^{-1} \text{m}^{-2}\) |
A parallel plate capacitor with cross-sectional area \(A\) and separation \(d\) has air between the plates. An insulating slab of the same area but the thickness of \(\dfrac{d}{2}\) is inserted between the plates as shown in the figure having a dielectric constant, \(K=4\). The ratio of new capacitance to its original capacitance will be:
1. | \(2:1\) | 2. | \(8:5\) |
3. | \(6:5\) | 4. | \(4:1\) |
A parallel-plate capacitor of area \(A\), plate separation \(d\) and capacitance \(C\) is filled with four dielectric materials having dielectric constants \(k_1, k_2,k_3\) and \(k_4\) as shown in the figure below. If a single dielectric material is to be used to have the same capacitance \(C\) in this capacitor, then its dielectric constant \(k\) is given by:
1. | \( {k}={k}_1+{k}_2+{k}_3+3 {k}_4\) |
2. | \({k}=\frac{2}{3}\left({k}_1+{k}_2+{k}_3\right)+2 {k}_4\) |
3. | \({k}=\frac{2}{3} {k}_4\left(\frac{{k}_1}{{k}_1+{K}_4}+\frac{{k}_2}{{k}_2+{k}_4}+\frac{{k}_3}{{k}_3+{k}_4}\right)\) |
4. | \(\frac{1}{{k}}=\frac{1}{{k}_1}+\frac{1}{{k}_2}+\frac{1}{{k}_3}+\frac{3}{2 {k}_4}\) |
Two thin dielectric slabs of dielectric constants \(K_1\) and \(K_2\) \((K_1<K_2)\) are inserted between plates of a parallel plate capacitor, as shown in the figure. The variation of electric field \('E'\) between the plates with distance \('d'\) as measured from the plate \(P\) is correctly shown by:
1. | 2. | ||
3. | 4. |
1. | increase. | 2. | decrease. |
3. | remain the same. | 4. | become zero. |
