Q:

A   parallel-plate   capacitor,with   air   in between  the  plates,  has  capacitance  C. Now  the  space  between  the  two  plates  of the  capacitor  is  filled  with  a  dielectric  of dielectric constant 7. Then the value of the capacitance will become

A) C B) C/7
C) 7C D) 14C
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) 7C

Explanation:

As  the  capacitance  is  charged  by the  factor  equal  to  the  value  of dielectric constant, Hence, C’ = kC = 7C
