C

Decrease in the potential difference across the plates, reduction in stored energy, but no change in the charge on the plates

D

None of the above

    If the capacitor is kept connected with the battery and then the dielectric slab is inserted between the plates, then what will be the change in the charge, the capacitance the potential difference, the electric field an the stored energy?

    STATEMENT-1: A parallel plate capacitor is charged by a battery of voltage V . The battery is then disconnected. If the space between the plates is filled with a dielectric, the enegry stroed in the capacitor will decrease STATEMENT-2: The capacitance of a capacitor increases due to the introduciton of a dielectric between the plates.

    A parallel plate capacitor has smooth square plates of side ''a''. It is charged by a battery so that, the charge density becomes sigma . After charging, the battery is disconnected. Now a smooth dielectric slab of length a which can fill the space between the plates is introduced between the plates from one side between the plates. .
