SamplePhysics· Numerical+4 / 0
The space between the plates of a parallel-plate capacitor of capacitance (without any dielectric) is now filled with three dielectric slabs of dielectric constants , and (as shown in the figure). If the new capacitance is , then the value of is:
A parallel-plate capacitor drawn as a wide rectangle, with a lead and a plus sign at the top plate and a lead and a minus sign at the bottom plate. The full plate width is marked A by a horizontal arrow and the full height is marked d by a vertical arrow on the right. The upper half, of thickness marked d/2 on the left, is a single plain slab labelled K1 running the whole width. The lower half is divided vertically into two hatched slabs of equal width, labelled K2 on the left and K3 on the right, with the right-hand one marked A/2 by an arrow beneath the rectangle.
