  • question_answer
    A parallel plate capacitor filled with a material of dielectric constant k is charged to a certain voltage. The dielectric material is removed. Then:
    (A) the capacitance decreases by a factor k
    (B) the electric field reduces by a factor k
    (C) the voltage across the capacitor increases by a factor k
    (D) the charge stored in the capacitor increases by a factor k

    A)                  A and B are true

    B)                  A and C are true

    C)                  B and C are true

    D)                  B and D are true  

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

                     As capacitance of capacitor after introducing dielectric is given by                 \[C=\frac{k{{\varepsilon }_{0}}A}{d}\]                 Hence, if dielectric is introduced the capacitance  increases by k, but when dielectric is removed, then capacitance will decrease by factor k and since \[V=\frac{Q}{C}\]                 Hence, if C decreases in factor k then V will increase by factor k.
