A parallel plate air capacitor of capacitance is connected to a cell of emf and then disconnected from it. A dielectric slab of dielectric constant , which can just fill the air gap of the capacitor, is now inserted in it. Which of the following is incorrect ?


A capacitor of is charged as shown in the diagram. When the switch is turned to position the percentage of its stored energy dissipated is

A parallel-plate capacitor of area A, plate separation d and capacitance C is filled with four dielectric materials having dielectric constants k1, k2, k3 and k4 as shown in the figure below. If a single dielectric material is to be used to have the same capacitance C in this capacitor, then its dielectric constant k is given by :-

A capacitor is charged by a battery. The battery is removed and another identical uncharged capacitor is connected in parallel. The total electrostatic energy of resulting system :-
