SOLVED: A parallel plate capacitor is inserted with a dielectric slab of dielectric constant K = 2.5, producing a 5.0 mF capacitance. It is connected to a battery of potential difference 10.0 V until fully charged.a) Determine the charge stored in the capacitor.b) The capacitor is then disconnected from the battery, and the dielectric slab is removed. Determine the new capacitance of the capacitor.c) Determine the new potential difference between the plates of the capacitor.d) Does removing the

SOLVED:A parallel plate capacitor with air as the dielectric has capacitance C. A slab of dielectric constant K and having the same thickness as the separation between the plates is introduced so as to fill one-fourth of the capacitor as shown in the figure. The new capacitance will be (a) (K 3) (C)/(4) (b) (K 2) (C)/(4) (c) (K 1) (C)/(4) (d) (K C)/(4)
