Two parallel plate air capacitors of same capacity ' C ' are connected in series to a battery of emf ' E '. Then one of the capacitors is completely filled with dielectric material of constant ' K '. The change in the effective capacity of the series combination is
Options
- AC 2 [ ~K +1 ~K -1 ]
- B2 C [ K -1 ~K +1 ]
- CC 2 [ ~K -1 ~K +1 ]
- DC 2 [ ~K -1 ~K +1 ]^2
Correct answer
C. C 2 [ ~K -1 ~K +1 ]
Step-by-step solution
aligned 1 C ₁ & = 1 C + 1 C = 2 C C ₁ & = C 2 1 C ₂ & = 1 C + 1 KC 1 C ₂ & = 1 C [1+ 1 ~K ] C ₂ & = CK K +1 C & = CK K +1 - C 2 = C [ K K +1 - 1 2 ] C & = C 2 [ ~K -1 ~K +1 ] aligned
