A parallel plate capacitor with plate separation \(5\) \(\mathrm{mm}\) is charged up by a battery. It is found that on introducing a dielectric sheet of thickness \(2 \mathrm{~mm}\), while keeping the battery connections intact, the capacitor draws \(25 \%\) more charge from the battery than before. The dielectric constant of the sheet is _______.
Pick an option to check your answer.
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(B) \(2\)
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
Without dielectric
\(\mathrm{Q}=\frac{\mathrm{A} \in_0}{\mathrm{~d}} \mathrm{~V}\)
with dielectric
Q=\(\frac{A \in_0 V}{d-t+\frac{t}{K}}\)
given
\(\frac{\mathrm{A} \in_0 \mathrm{~V}}{\mathrm{~d}-\mathrm{t}+\frac{\mathrm{t}}{\mathrm{K}}}=(1.25) \frac{\mathrm{A} \in_0 \mathrm{~V}}{\mathrm{~d}}\)
\(\Rightarrow 1.25\left(3+\frac{2}{\mathrm{~K}}\right)=5\)
\(\Rightarrow \mathrm{K}=2\)
