The capacity of a parallel plate capacitor is $5 \mu F$. When a glass plate is placed between the plates of the capacitor,its potential difference reduces to $1/8$ of the original value. The magnitude of the relative dielectric constant of the glass is

$A$ parallel plate capacitor has a plate area of $100\, m^{2}$ and a plate separation of $10\, m$. The space between the plates is filled up to a thickness of $5\, m$ with a material of dielectric constant $10$. The resultant capacitance of the system is $'x'\, pF$. Given $\varepsilon_{0} = 8.85 \times 10^{-12} F \cdot m^{-1}$,the value of $'x'$ to the nearest integer is:

Half of the space between the plates of a parallel plate capacitor is filled with a dielectric material of dielectric constant $K$ parallel to the plates. If the initial capacitance is $C$,what will be the new (final) capacitance?

When a dielectric slab is introduced between the plates of a parallel plate capacitor that is connected to a battery,the new charge on the plates is:

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