A parallel plate, air filled capacitor has capacitance C. When a dielectric material of dielectric constant 4 is filled so that half of the space between plates is occupied by it, then percentage increase in the capacitance is equal to

a
25%
b
33.3%
c
56%
d
60%

detailed solution

Correct option is D

C′=8ε0A5d& C′=85C,% increase =C′−CC×100=60%
