JEE Mains · Physics · STD 12 - 2. Electric potential and capacitance

A parallel plate capacitor is made of two circular plates separated by a distance \(5\ mm\) and with a dielectric of dielectric constant \(2.2\) between them. When the electric field in the dielectric is \(3 \times 10^4\) \( Vm^{-1}\) the charge density of the positive plate will be close to

  1. A \(3  \times  10^{-7} \) \(Cm^{-2}\)
  2. B \(3  \times  10^4\) \( Cm^{-2}\)
  3. C \(6  \times 10^4 \) \(Cm^{-2}\)
  4. D \(6  \times  10^{-7}\) \(Cm^{-2}\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(D) \(6  \times  10^{-7}\) \(Cm^{-2}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Electric field in presence of dielectric between the two plates of a parallel plate capacitor is given by, \(E=\frac{\sigma}{K \varepsilon_{0}}\) Then, charge density \({\sigma=K \varepsilon_{0} E}\)…
