The distance between the plates of a parallel plate capacitor is $d$. A metal plate of thickness $d/2$ is placed between the plates. The capacitance would then be

Assertion : The electrostatic force between the plates of a charged isolated capacitor decreases when dielectric fills whole space between plates.
Reason : The electric field between the plates of a charged isolated capacitance increases when dielectric fills whole space between plates.
A parallel plate capacitor is connected to a battery and a dielectric slab is inserted between the plates, then which quantity increase
Two parallel plate capacitors of capacity $C$ and $3\,C$ are connected in parallel combination and charged to a potential difference $18\,V$. The battery is then disconnected and the space between the plates of the capacitor of capacity $C$ is completely filled with a material of dielectric constant $9$. The final potential difference across the combination of capacitors will be $V$
The capacity of a parallel plate condenser is $5\,\mu F$. When a glass plate is placed between the plates of the conductor, its potential becomes $1/8^{th}$ of the original value. The value of dielectric constant will be
