A capacitor is charged with a battery and then disconnected. A dielectric slab is then inserted between the plates. How are the
Potential difference.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

As `V=(Q)/(C )" and "Q=` constant,
We have `V propto (1)/(C )`. So the potential difference is reduced.
The final potential difference will be `(1)/(k)` times of its previous value.
