The space between the rectangular plates (with sides a and b ) of a parallel-plato capacitor (the distance between the plates is l) is filled with a solid dielectric whose dielectric constant is c. The capacitor is charged to a certain potential difference and disconnected from the voltage source. After that the dielectric is slowly moved out of the capacitor, which lTIOanS that the section x not filled with the dielectric gradually increases in size. How wi ll the potential difference between the plates and the surface charge densities on both parts of the capacitor (with and without the dielectric) change in the process?

Between the plates of a parallel plate capacitor a dielectric plate in introduced just to fill the complete space between the plates. The capacitor is charged and later disconnected from the battery. The dielectric plate is then slowly drawn out of the capacitor plates. the plot of the potential difference across the plates and the length of the dielectric plate drawn out is
