Two identical condensers \(M\) and \(N\) are connected in series with a battery. The space between the plates of \(M\) is completely filled with a dielectric medium of dielectric constant 8 and a copper plate of thickness \(\frac{d}{2}\) is introduced between the plates of \(N\). ( \(d\) is the distance between the plates). Then potential differences across \(M\) and \(N\) are, respectively, in the ratio

  1. A 1 : 4
  2. B 4 : 1
  3. C 3 : 8
  4. D 1 : 6
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) 1 : 4

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Let the capacitance of condensor, \(M=C\) The new capacitance of condensor, \(C_M=8 C\) The capacitance of condensor, \(N=C\) The new capacitance of condensor, \(C_N=\frac{C^{\prime}}{2}\) where \(\quad C^{\prime}=\frac{A \varepsilon_0}{d / 4}=\frac{4 A \varepsilon_0}{d}=4 C\)…
