Manipal MET2023PhysicsCapacitance
A charged capacitor when filled with a dielectric K=3 has charge Q₀ , voltage V₀ and field E₀ . If the dielectric is replaced with another one having K=9 , the new values of charge voltage and field will be respectively
Options
- A3 Q₀, 3 V₀, 3 E₀
- BQ₀, 3 V₀, 3 E₀
- CQ₀, V₀ 3 , 3 E₀
- DQ₀, V₀ 3 , E₀ 3
Correct answer
D. Q₀, V₀ 3 , E₀ 3
Step-by-step solution
When charging battery is disconnected then charge remains constant, V becomes 1 / K times and E becomes 1 / K times. So, new value of charge is Q₀ . New value of V= V₀ 3 9 = V₀ 3 New value of E= E₀ 3 9 = E₀ 3
