A slab of dielectric constant has the same crosssectional area as the plates of a parallel plate capacitor and thickness , where is the separation of the plates. The capacitance of the capacitor when the slab is inserted between the plates will be :
(Given capacitance of capacitor with air as medium between plates.)
(Given capacitance of capacitor with air as medium between plates.)
Options
- A
- B
- C
- D
Correct answer
A.
Step-by-step solution
From the above diagram, we can write,
Initially, when there is no dielectric inserted between the plates the capacitance will be, .
When the dielectric slab is inserted, we can assume there are capacitors that are connected in series.
, and
The equivalent capacitance,
