The gap between the plates of a parallel plate capacitor of area $A$ and distance between plates $d$ is filled with a dielectric whose permittivity varies linearly from $\varepsilon_1$ at one plate to $\varepsilon_2$ at the other. The capacitance of the capacitor is

Two square-shaped metal plates of side $1 \,m$, kept $0.01 \,m$ apart in air, form a parallel plate capacitor. It is connected to a battery of $500 \,V$. The plates of the capacitor are then immersed in an insulating oil by lowering the plates vertically with a speed of $0.001 \,m/s$. If the dielectric constant of the oil is $11$, then the current drawn from the battery during this process is:

Two identical parallel plate air capacitors are connected in series to a battery of e.m.f. $V$. If one of the capacitors is inserted in a liquid of dielectric constant $K$,then the potential difference across the other capacitor will become:
