The capacity of parallel plate condenser...

The capacity of parallel plate condenser is `5muF`. When a glass plate is placed between the plates of the condenser, its potential difference reduces to `1//8` of the original value. The magnitude of relative dielectric constant of glass is

A

4

B

6

C

7

D

8

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D

`V_(m)=V_("air")/k" "thereforek=V_("air")/V_(m)=1/(1//8)=8`
