JEE Main 2022 · 25 Jul · Shift 2, Physics question 58

Two parallel plate capacitors of capacity C and 3C are connected in parallel combination and charged to a potential difference 18 V. The battery is then disconnected and the space between the plates of the capacitor of capacity C is completely filled with a material of dielectric constant 9. The final potential difference across the combination of capacitors will be ______ V.

Answer and worked solution

Official answer: 6

Charge 4C×18=72C4C\times18=72C stays; capacitance becomes 9C+3C=12C9C+3C=12C: V=6V=6 V.

Answer: 6
