Questions  

Two metal plates form a parallel plate condenser. The distance between the plates is d. A metal plate of thickness d/2 and of the same area is inserted completely between the plates. The ratio of capacitances in the two cases (later to initial) is :

a
2 : 1
b
1 : 2
c
1 : 1
d
1 : 4

detailed solution

Correct option is A

C=Aε0d, C'=Aε0d2=2Aε0d⇒C'C=21
