A parallel plate capacitor is made of two plates of length $l$, width $w$ and separated by distance $d$. A dielectric slab ( dielectric constant $K$) that fits exactly between the plates is held near the edge of the plates. It is pulled into the capacitor by a force $F = -\frac{{\partial U}}{{\partial x}}$ where $U$ is the energy of the capacitor when dielectric is inside the capacitor up to distance $x$ (See figure). If the charge on the capacitor is $Q$ then the force on the dielectric when it is near the edge is
$\frac{{{Q^2}d}}{{2w{l^2}{\varepsilon _0}}}K$
$\frac{{{Q^2}w}}{{2d{l^2}{\varepsilon _0}}}\left( {K - 1} \right)$
$\frac{{{Q^2}d}}{{2w{l^2}{\varepsilon _0}}}\left( {K - 1} \right)$
$\frac{{{Q^2}w}}{{2d{l^2}{\varepsilon _0}}}K$
A parallel - plate capacitor with plate area $A$ has separation $d$ between the plates. Two dielectric slabs of dielectric constant ${K}_{1}$ and ${K}_{2}$ of same area $\frac A2$ and thickness $\frac d2$ are inserted in the space between the plates. The capacitance of the capacitor will be given by :
What are called polar molecules and non-polar molecules ? Both are Give examples.
A parallel plate capacitor has two layers of dielectrics as shown in fig. This capacitor is connected across a battery, then the ratio of potential difference across the dielectric layers is
Between the plates of a parallel plate condenser there is $1\,mm$ thick paper of dielectric constant $4$. It is charged at $100\;volt$. The electric field in $volt/metre$ between the plates of the capacitor is
The plates of a parallel plate capacitor are charged up to $100\, volt$. A $2\, mm$ thick plate is inserted between the plates, then to maintain the same potential difference, the distance between the capacitor plates is increased by $1.6\, mm$. The dielectric constant of the plate is
