Air capacitor has capacitance of 1 ~F . Now the space between two plates of capacitor is filled with two dielectrics as shown in figure. The capacitance of the capacitor is [ d = distance between two plates of capacitor, K ₁ and K ₂ are dielectric constants of first dielectric and second dielectric respectively]
Options
- A3 ~F
- B6 ~F
- C8 ~F
- D12 ~F
Correct answer
A. 3 ~F
Step-by-step solution
Capacitance of a parallel plate capacitor, C = ₀ ~A ~d =1 ~F ... (given) After inserting the dielectrics, C ₁= K ₁ ₀ ~A 2 ~d =4 1 2 =2 ~F ... (given, K ₁=4 ) array ll & C ₂= K ₂ ₀ ~A 2 ~d =2 1 2 =1 ~F & C _ eff = C ₁+ C ₂=3 ~F array ...(given, K ₂=4 )
