Define dielectric constant.
The energy and capacity of a charged parallel plate capacitor are $U$ and $C$ respectively. Now a dielectric slab of $\in _r = 6$ is inserted in it then energy and capacity becomes (Assume charge on plates remains constant)
A parallel plate capacitor is filled by a dielectric whose relative permittivity varies with the applied voltage $(U )$ as $\varepsilon = \alpha U$ where $\alpha = 2{V^{ - 1}}$. A similar capacitor with no dielectric is charged to ${U_0} = 78\,V$. It is then connected to the uncharged capacitor with the dielectric. Find the final voltage on the capacitors.
A container has a base of $50 \mathrm{~cm} \times 5 \mathrm{~cm}$ and height $50 \mathrm{~cm}$, as shown in the figure. It has two parallel electrically conducting walls each of area $50 \mathrm{~cm} \times 50 \mathrm{~cm}$. The remaining walls of the container are thin and non-conducting. The container is being filled with a liquid of dielectric constant $3$ at a uniform rate of $250 \mathrm{~cm}^3 \mathrm{~s}^{-1}$. What is the value of the capacitance of the container after $10$ seconds? [Given: Permittivity of free space $\epsilon_0=9 \times 10^{-12} \mathrm{C}^2 \mathrm{~N}^{-1} \mathrm{~m}^{-2}$, the effects of the non-conducting walls on the capacitance are negligible]
In the reported figure, a capacitor is formed by placing a compound dielectric between the plates of parallel plate capacitor. The expression for the capacity of the said capacitor will be (Given area of plate $=A$ )
The respective radii of the two spheres of a spherical condenser are $12\;cm$ and $9\;cm$. The dielectric constant of the medium between them is $ 6$. The capacity of the condenser will be
