(b)
(c)
(d)

Show Answer
Answer:
Correct Answer: 45. (d)
Solution:
- (d) When oil is placed between space of plates
When oil is removed
On comparing both equations, we get
When dielectric is partially filled between the plates of a parallel plate capacitor then its capacitance increases but potential difference decreases. To maintain the capacitance and potential difference of capacitor as before separatoin betweeen the plates has to be increased by d. In such case
