A parallel plate capacitor is connected ...

A parallel plate capacitor is connected across a battery. Now, keeping the battery connected, a dielectric slab is inserted between the plates. In the process,

A

no work done

B

work is done by the battery and the stored energy increases.

C

work is done by the external agent, and the stored energy decteases. lt

D

work is done by the battery as well as the external agent, but the stored energy done not charge.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B

Extra charge will flow through battery, so work is done by battery. External agent will do negative work.
