2. Electric Potential and Capacitance
easy
A parallel plate capacitor with air between the plates has a capacitance $C$. If the distance between the plates is doubled and the space between the plates is filled with a dielectric of dielectric constant $6$ , then the capacitance will become
A
$3 C$
B
$\frac{C}{3}$
C
$12 C$
D
$\frac{C}{6}$
Solution
(a)
$C=\frac{A \varepsilon_0}{d}$
$C^{\prime}=\frac{6 A \varepsilon_0}{2 d}=\frac{2 A \varepsilon_0}{d}$
$C^{\prime}=3 C$
