A parallel plate capacitor with plate separation 5 mm is charged by a battery. On introducing a mica sheet of 2 mm and maintaining the connections of the plates with the terminals of the battery, it is found that it draws 25\% more charge from the battery. The dielectric constant of mica is

1. 1.0
2. 2.5
3. 1.5
4. 2.0

A parallel plate capacitor has capacitance C, when there is vacuum within the parallel plates. A sheet having thickness ( 13 )rd of the separation between the plates and relative permittivity K is introduced between the plates. The new capacitance of the system is :

2. 4KC3K-1
3. CK2+K
4. 3KC2K+1

A parallel plate capacitor is filled equally (half) with two dielectrics of dielectric constants 1 and 2, as shown in figures. The distance between the plates is d and area of each plate is A. If capacitance in first configuration and second configuration are C1 and C2 respectively, then C1C2 is: First Configuration [figure] Second Configuration [figure]
