$A$ parallel plate capacitor with air between the plates has a capacitance of $15 \, pF$. The separation between the plates is doubled and the space between them is filled with a medium of dielectric constant $3.5$. Then the capacitance becomes $\frac{x}{4} \, pF$. The value of $x$ is $............$

$A$ capacitor is half-filled with a dielectric $(K=2)$ as shown in Figure $A$. If the same capacitor is to be filled with the same dielectric as shown in Figure $B$, what would be the thickness $t$ of the dielectric so that the capacitor still has the same capacity?

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