Two parallel plate capacitors of capacity CC and 3C3C are connected in parallel combination and charged to a potential difference 18V18V. The battery is then disconnected and the space between the plates of the capacitor of capacity CC is completely filled with a material of dielectric constant 99. The final potential difference across the combination of capacitors will be _____ VV.Two parallel plate capacitors of capacity C and 3C are connected in parallel combination and charged to a potentialTwo parallel plate capacitors of capacity C and 3C are connected in parallel combination and charged to a potential

Correct answer

0

Step-by-step solution

Two parallel plate capacitors of capacity C and 3C are connected in parallel combination and charged to a potential

The charge on the capacitor is given by q=CVq = CV.

Initial charge on C=18CVC = 18CV

And initial charge on 3C=54CV3C = 54CV

Let final common potential difference =V′= {V}^{'}

When a dielectric of dielectric constant kk is introduced between the plates of the capacitor the capacitance becomes kk times.

Two parallel plate capacitors of capacity C and 3C are connected in parallel combination and charged to a potential

Applying conservation of charge,

9CV′+3CV′=18CV+54CV9C{V}^{'} + 3C{V}^{'} = 18CV + 54CV

⇒12CV′=72CV⇒V′=6V⇒ 12C{V}^{'} = 72CV ⇒ {V}^{'} = 6V
