A parallel plate air capacity 'C' farad, potential 'V' volt and energy 'E' joule . When the gap between the plates is completely filled with dielectric

A

both V and E increase

B

both V and E decrease

C

V decreases, E increases

D

V increases, E decreases

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B

When the space between the plates of a parallel plate capacitor is completely fileld with a dielectric, C is increased,
Both E and V are decreased.
`because V=(Q)/(C)`, V is decreased
and `E=(1)/(2)(Q^(2))/(C)` is also decreased
