A parallel plate air capacitor with no dielectric between the plates is connected to the constant voltage source. What will be the new capacitance and charge on the capacitor if a dielectric with dielectric constant K=5 is inserted between the plates? Intially capacitance and charge on the capacitor are 50 μF and 200 μC respectively before the introduction of the dielectric.
Key concept - Capacitance & charge on parallel plate capacitor increases due to fully filled dielectric, if battery remains connected. |
