2. Electric Potential and Capacitance
medium

A capacitor is charged by using a battery which is then disconnected. A dielectric slab is then slipped between the plates, which results in

A

Reduction of charge on the plates and increase of potential difference across the plates

B

Increase in the potential difference across the plates, reduction in stored energy, but no change in the charge on the plates.

C

Decrease in the potential difference across the plates, reduction in stored energy, but no change in the charge on the plates

D

None of the above

Solution

Due to slab.

$\mathrm{c} \rightarrow \mathrm{K C}, \quad \mathrm{E}=\frac{1}{2} \mathrm{C V}^{2}$

$\mathrm{V} \rightarrow \mathrm{V} / \mathrm{K}, \quad \mathrm{E}=\mathrm{E} / \mathrm{K}$

$\mathrm{Q}=\mathrm{CV}=$ constant

$\mathrm{V} \rightarrow$ Decrease, Energy decrease.

$\mathrm{Q} \rightarrow$ Remain constant
