$A$ dielectric slab of thickness $d$ is inserted in a parallel plate capacitor whose negative plate is at $x = 0$ and positive plate is at $x = 3d$. The slab is equidistant from the plates. The capacitor is given some charge. As one goes from $x = 0$ to $x = 3d$:

  • A
    The magnitude of the electric field remains the same.
  • B
    The direction of the electric field remains the same.
  • C
    The electric potential increases continuously.
  • D

$A$ parallel plate capacitor with air as dielectric has a capacitance of $4 \mu F$. The space between the plates of the capacitor is completely filled with a material of dielectric constant $K = 5$ and charged to a potential of $100 \ V$. The work done to completely remove the dielectric material after the capacitor is disconnected from the battery is (in $J$)

Consider a parallel plate capacitor with plates in the shape of a square in the $XY$-plane. The gap between the plates is filled with a dielectric material. The dielectric constant $k$ varies along the $X$-axis as $k(x) = \left[1 + \left(\frac{x}{L}\right)^\alpha\right]$,where $\alpha$ is a constant. Let $C_d$ and $C_a$ be the capacitance in the presence of the dielectric and air,respectively. If the ratio $\frac{C_d}{C_a} = \frac{7}{6}$,then the value of $\alpha$ must be

The distance between two plates of a capacitor is $d$ and its capacitance is $C_1$,when air is the medium between the plates. If a metal sheet of thickness $\frac{2d}{3}$ and of same area as the plate is introduced between the plates,the capacitance of the capacitor becomes $C_2$. The ratio $\frac{C_2}{C_1}$ is: (in $:1$)

What will be the capacity of a parallel-plate capacitor when the half of the parallel space between the plates is filled by a material of dielectric constant $\varepsilon_r$? Assume that the capacity of the capacitor in air is $C$.
