Questions  

An uncharged parallel plate capacitor having a dielectric of dielectric constant K is connected to a similar air cored parallel plate capacitor charged to a potential V0. The two share the charge, and the common potential becomes V. The dielectric constant K is

a
V0V−1
b
V0V+1
c
VV0−1
d
VV0+1

detailed solution

Correct option is A

C1=C, V1=V0, C2=KC, V2=0, and Vcommon =VWe know thatVcommon =C1V1+C2V2C1+C2∴V=CV0+KC×OC+KCor K=V0V−1
