Electrostatic Potential and Capacitance - Result Question 29

31. Two thin dielectric slabs of dielectric constants $K_1$ and $K_2(K_1<K_2)$ are inserted between plates of a parallel plate capacitor, as shown in the

figure. The variation of electric field ’ $E$ ’ between the plates with distance ’ $d$ ’ as measured from plate $P$ is correctly shown by : [2014]

(a)

(b)

(c)

(d)

Show Answer

Answer:

Correct Answer: 31. (c)

Solution:

  1. (c) Electric field, $E \propto \frac{1}{K}$

As $K_1<K_2$ so $E_1>E_2$

Hence graph (c) correctly dipicts the variation of electric field $E$ with distance d.
