The gap between the plates of a parallel plate capacitor of area A and distance between plates d, is filled with a dielectric whose permittivity varies linearly from ϵ1 at one plate to ϵ2 at the other. The capacitance of capacitor is :
A
ϵ0(ϵ1+ϵ2)A/d

Solution
The correct option is Dϵ0(ϵ2−ϵ1)A/[dln(ϵ2/ϵ1)] Answer is D. All the capacitances are connected in series. We know that, Capacitance is given by C=KϵAd Equivalent capacitance is 1C=∫ϵ1/ϵ0ϵ2/ϵoKϵAddx C=ϵo(ϵ2−ϵ1)Adln(ϵ2ϵ1)
