Assertion (A): When the distance between the parallel plates of a parallel plate capacitor is halved and the dielectric constant of the dielectric used is made three times, then the capacitance becomes three times. Reason (R ): Capacitance does not depend on the nature of material.

Separation between the plates of parallel plate capacitor is 5 mm. this capacitor, having air as the dielectric medium between the plates, is charged to a potential difference 25 V using a battery. The battery is then disconnected and a dielectric slab of thickness 3mm and dielectric constant K=10 is placed between the plates as shown. potential difference between the plates after the dielectric slab has been introduced is-

Two capacitors are connected in parallel to a battery. If a dielectric medium is inserted between the plates of one of the capacitors then the enegry stored in the system will increase. On inserting dielectric medium between the plates of a capacitors, its capacity increases.
