The plates of a parallel plate capacitor are charged up to $200 \ V$. $A$ dielectric slab of thickness $4 \ mm$ is inserted between its plates. Then,to maintain the same potential difference between the plates of the capacitor,the distance between the plates is increased by $3.2 \ mm$. The dielectric constant of the dielectric slab is

  • A
    $1$
  • B
    $4$
  • C
    $5$
  • D
    $6$

$A$ parallel plate capacitor with plate area $A$ and distance of separation $d$ is filled with a dielectric. What is the capacity of the capacitor when permittivity of the dielectric varies as :
$\varepsilon(x) = \varepsilon_{0} + kx$,for $(0 < x \leq d/2)$
$\varepsilon(x) = \varepsilon_{0} + k(d-x)$,for $(d/2 \leq x \leq d)$

$A$ medium having dielectric constant $K > 1$ fills the space between the plates of a parallel plate capacitor. The plates have a large area,and the distance between them is $d$. The capacitor is connected to a battery of voltage $V$,as shown in Figure $(a)$. Now,the plates are moved such that the distance between them becomes $2d$,with the dielectric slab of thickness $d$ remaining in between,as shown in Figure $(b)$. In the process of going from the configuration depicted in Figure $(a)$ to that in Figure $(b)$,which of the following statement$(s)$ is(are) correct?
