2. Electric Potential and Capacitance
medium
Two parallel plates have equal and opposite charge. When the space between them is evacuated, the electric field between the plates is $2 \times {10^5}\,V/m$. When the space is filled with dielectric, the electric field becomes $1 \times {10^5}\,V/m$. The dielectric constant of the dielectric material
A
$1/2$
B
$1$
C
$2$
D
$3$
Solution
(c) $K = \frac{{{E_{{\rm{without \,dielectric }}}}}}{{{E_{{\rm{with\, dielectric}}}}}} = \frac{{2 \times {{10}^5}}}{{1 \times {{10}^5}}} = 2$
