A parallel plate capacitor has plate area \(100\, m ^{2}\) and plate separation of \(10\, m\). The space between the plates is filled up to a thickness \(5\, m\) with a material of dielectric constant of \(10 .\) The resultant capacitance of the system is \('x'\) \(pF\). The value of \(\varepsilon_{0}=8.85 \times 10^{-12} F \cdot m ^{-1}\) The value of \('x'\) to the nearest integer is............

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) \(161\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(A =100 m ^{2}\)

Using \(C =\frac{ k \in_{0} A }{ d }\)

\(C _{1}=\frac{10 \epsilon_{0}(100)}{5}\)

\(=200 \in_{0}\)

\(C _{2}=\frac{\epsilon_{0}(100)}{5}=20 \epsilon_{0}\)

\(C _{1} \& C _{2}\) are in series so \(C _{ eqv. }=\frac{ C _{1} C _{2}}{ C _{1}+ C _{2}}\)
