Identify the incorrect statement(s) among the following:
when a dielectric medium is introduced between the plates of a charged capacitor:
(A) If a plate of dielectric constant k, thickness t is placed between the plates of a charged capacitor of area A and distance d, then the new capacitance will be \( \frac{A\varepsilon_0}{d - t(1 - 1/k)} \)
(B) The electric field between plates of the charged capacitor when the dielectric is introduced will be \( E = (E_0 - E_p) \)
(C) Dielectric constant of the dielectric placed between plates of charged capacitor will be \( k = \frac{E_0}{E_0 - E_p} \)
(D) Dielectric strength of the dielectric is the maximum value of the electric field which may be applied before its breakdown.
Choose the correct answer from the options given below :
- A (A) only
- B (B) and (D) only
- C (C) only
- D (A) and (D) only
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(A) (A) only
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
This equation is incorrect. The formula for the capacitance with a dielectric between the plates should be: \(C=\frac{A \cdot \varepsilon_0 \cdot k}{d}\)

- igure given below shows variation of photocurrent with anode potential for different intensities of incident radiation. Some of the results obtained from the experiments are described below on the basis of the graph. Identify the correct results:

(A) The photoelectric current is higher for higher intensity of the incident radiation.
(B) The negative potential required to decrease the photocurrent at different intensities to zero is different.
(C) If the positive potential of the anode is increased beyond a certain value, the photocurrent does not increase for a given intensity.
(D) If the potential applied at the anode is zero, then the photocurrent is lower than the maximum value of current for the given intensity.
