$A$ 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

Two dielectric slabs of dielectric constants $K_1$ and $K_2$ and of the same thickness are inserted in a parallel plate capacitor. Given $K_1 = 2K_2$. If the potential differences across the slabs are $V_1$ and $V_2$ respectively,then:

$A$ parallel plate capacitor with air between the plates has a capacitance of $9 \ pF$. The separation between its plates is $d$. The space between the plates is now filled with two dielectrics. One of the dielectrics has a dielectric constant $K_1 = 6$ and thickness $\frac{d}{3}$,while the other one has a dielectric constant $K_2 = 12$ and thickness $\frac{2d}{3}$. The capacitance of the capacitor is now ......... $pF$.

The figure given below shows two identical parallel plate capacitors connected to a battery with switch $S$ closed. The switch is now opened and the free space between the plates of both capacitors is filled with a dielectric of dielectric constant $K = 3$. What will be the ratio of the total electrostatic energy stored in both capacitors before and after the introduction of the dielectric?

Assertion : If the distance between parallel plates of a capacitor is halved and the dielectric constant is increased to three times its original value,then the capacitance becomes $6$ times.
Reason : The capacity of a capacitor does not depend upon the nature of the material between the plates.
