In the reported figure, a capacitor is formed by placing a compound dielectric between the plates of parallel plate capacitor. The expression for the capacity of the said capacitor will be (Given area of plate \(=A\) )

Pick an option to check your answer.
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(B) \(\frac{15}{34} \frac{{K\varepsilon}_{0} {A}}{{d}}\)
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
\(\frac{1}{C_{eq}}=\frac{d}{K \varepsilon_{0} A}+\frac{2 d}{3 K \varepsilon_{0} A}+\frac{3 d}{5 K \varepsilon_{0} A}\)
\(C_{eq}=\frac{15 K \varepsilon_{0} A}{34 d}\)
