  • A
    $\frac{{\varepsilon _0}A}{{\left( {\frac{{{d_1}}}{{{K_1}}} + \frac{{{d_2}}}{{{K_2}}} + \frac{{{d_3}}}{{{K_3}}}} \right)}}$
  • B
    $\frac{{\varepsilon _0}A}{{\left( {\frac{{{d_1} + {d_2} + {d_3}}}{{{K_1} + {K_2} + {K_3}}}} \right)}}$
  • C
    $\frac{{\varepsilon _0}A({K_1}{K_2}{K_3})}{{{d_1}{d_2}{d_3}}}$
  • D
    ${\varepsilon _0}\left( {\frac{{A{K_1}}}{{{d_1}}} + \frac{{A{K_2}}}{{{d_2}}} + \frac{{A{K_3}}}{{{d_3}}}} \right)$

The outer sphere of a spherical air capacitor is earthed. For increasing its capacitance:

Assertion: The electrostatic force between the plates of a charged isolated capacitor decreases when a dielectric fills the whole space between the plates.
Reason: The electric field between the plates of a charged isolated capacitor increases when a dielectric fills the whole space between the plates.

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:

$A$ parallel plate capacitor with width $4\,cm$,length $8\,cm$ and separation between the plates of $4\,mm$ is connected to a battery of $20\,V$. $A$ dielectric slab of dielectric constant $5$ having length $1\,cm$,width $4\,cm$ and thickness $4\,mm$ is inserted between the plates of the parallel plate capacitor. The electrostatic energy of this system will be ......... $\epsilon_{0}\,J$. (Where $\epsilon_{0}$ is the permittivity of free space)

$A$ parallel plate capacitor with air between plates has a capacitance of $8\,\mu F$. What will be the capacitance if the distance between the plates is reduced by half,and the space between them is filled with a substance of dielectric constant $6$?
