A parallel plate capacitor has a capacity \(80 \times 10^{-6} \mathrm{~F}\), when air is present between the plates. The volume between the plates is then completely filled with a dielectric slab of dielectric constant 20. The capacitor is now connected to a battery of \(30 \mathrm{~V}\) by wires. The dielectric slab is then removed. Then, the charge that passes now through the wire is

  1. A \(45.6 \times 10^{-3} \mathrm{C}\)
  2. B \(25.3 \times 10^{-3} \mathrm{C}\)
  3. C \(120 \times 10^{-3} \mathrm{C}\)
  4. D \(125 \times 10^{-3} \mathrm{C}\)

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) \(45.6 \times 10^{-3} \mathrm{C}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Charge that through the wire \(\begin{aligned} \Delta q & =\Delta C V \\ & =\left(C^{\prime}-C\right) V \\ & =(k-1) \sigma V \\ & =(20-1)\left(80 \times 10^{-6}\right)(30) \\ & =4.56 \times 10^{-2} \\ & =45.6 \times 10^{-3} \mathrm{C}\end{aligned}\)
