An air-filled parallel plate capacitor has capacity $C$. If the distance between the plates is doubled and it is immersed in a liquid,the capacity becomes twice. The dielectric constant of the liquid is:

  • A
    $1$
  • B
    $2$
  • C
    $3$
  • D

In a parallel plate capacitor,the separation between the plates is $3\,mm$ with air between them. Now,a $1\,mm$ thick layer of a material of dielectric constant $K = 2$ is introduced between the plates,due to which the capacity increases. In order to bring its capacity back to the original value,the separation between the plates must be increased to......$mm$. (in $.5$)

$A$ parallel plate capacitor,partially filled with a dielectric slab of dielectric constant $K$,is connected to a cell of emf $V \text{ volt}$,as shown in the figure. The separation between the plates is $D$. Then:

$A$ parallel plate capacitor is charged and then isolated. If the separation between the plates is increased,which one of the following statements is $NOT$ correct?

The dielectric slab is introduced between the plates of a parallel plate charged capacitor. Which one of the following quantities will not change?

Two metal plates each of area $A$ form a parallel plate capacitor with air in between the plates. The distance between the plates is $d$. $A$ metal plate of thickness $\frac{d}{2}$ and of same area $A$ is inserted between the plates to form two capacitors of capacitances $C_1$ and $C_2$ as shown in the figure. If the effective capacitance of the two capacitors is $C^{\prime}$ and the capacitance of the capacitor initially is $C$,then $\frac{C^{\prime}}{C}$ is
