Capacitance MSQ - Question 4

Capacitance of a parallel plate air capacitor depends on 

Detailed Solution for Capacitance MSQ - Question 4

For parallel plate air capacitor C = (ε0A) / d Which clearly shows that capacitance does not depend on charge on both the conducting plates. Hence answer is (a), (b) and (c)

Capacitance MSQ - Question 5

A parallel plate capacitor of capacitance 10µis connected to a cell of emf 10 Volt and fully charged. Now a dielectric slab (k = 3) of thickness equal to the gap between the plates, is very slowly inserted to completely fill in the gap, keeping the cell connected. During the filling process:

Detailed Solution for Capacitance MSQ - Question 5

Charge on capacitor before insertion of dielectric slab = 100µC
Charge on capacitor after insertion of dielectric slab = 300µC
Increase in charge on the capacitor = 300 – 100 = 200µC
Heat produced = 0
Energy supplied by the cell = increase in stored potential energy + work done on the person who filling the dielectric slab + heat produced.

The correct answers are: the increase in charge on the capacitor is 200µC.   , the heat produced is 0., energy supplied by the cell = increase in stored potential energy + work done on the person who is filling the dielectric slab., energy supplied by the cell = increase in stored potential energy + work done on the person who is filling the dielectric slab + heat produced.

Capacitance MSQ - Question 6

A parallel plate capacitor is charged and then the battery is disconnected. When the plates of the capacitor are brought closer, then

Detailed Solution for Capacitance MSQ - Question 6

The correct answers are: energy stored in the capacitor decreases, the potential difference between the plates decreases, the capacitance increases

*Multiple options can be correct
Capacitance MSQ - Question 7

The plates of a parallel plate capacitor with no dielectric are connected to a voltage source. Now a dielectric of dielectric constant K is inserted to fill the whole space between the plates with voltage source remaining connected to the capacitor.

Detailed Solution for Capacitance MSQ - Question 7

(A)  
 

As potential difference source between the plates is connected, potential difference remains constant. But capacitance C becomes KC hence energy stored is increased by factor K.
(B) Electric field  is not changed.
(C) Charge on each plate is increased by factor K hence force between them increases by factor K2.
For effect of the medium, they must completely lie in the medium.
(D) Q = CV
Hence charge becomes KQ as C becomes KC and V remain unchanged.

The correct answers are: the energy stored in the capacitor will become K-times, the force of attraction between the plates will become K2-times, the charge on the capacitor will become K-times.

*Multiple options can be correct
Capacitance MSQ - Question 8

A capacitor (without dielectric) is discharging through a resistor. At some instant a dielectric is inserted between the plates, then which of the following is not true.

Detailed Solution for Capacitance MSQ - Question 8

Let the capacitance before insertion of dielectric be C and the resistance be R.

∴ 
∵ Just after insertion of dielectric the capacitance increases.
∴ The charge just after insertion of dielectric remains same, but the current decreases.

The energy stored in capacitor is hence energy decrease

The correct answers are: Just after the insertion of the dielectric, current will increase, Just after the insertion of the dielectric, charge on capacitor will increase., Just after the insertion of the dielectric, energy stored in the capacitor will increase.
