Electrostatics Question 273
Question: Condenser has a capacity of when it is filled with a medium of dielectric constant 15. Another condenser has a capacity of with air between the plates. Both are charged separately by a battery of . After charging, both are connected in parallel without the battery and the dielectric medium being removed. The common potential now is [MNR 1994]
Options:
A)
B)
C)
D)
Show Answer
Answer:
Correct Answer: A
Solution:
Now condenser of capacity C is filled with dielectric K, therefore C2 = KC As charge is conserved
therefore
