PRACTICE / Dielectrics
Insert a dielectric with the battery connected
A 2 μF capacitor remains connected to a 6 V ideal battery. A dielectric of relative permittivity 4 fully fills the gap.
Find its final free plate-charge magnitude.
Organize the givens & assumptions
- Cinitial = 2 μF
- V = 6 V
- κ = 4
Ideal capacitor remains on an ideal 6 V source; dielectric fully fills the gap with κ = 4; leakage neglected.
- A
- B
- C
- D
