d (d) $C = \frac{{{\varepsilon _0}A}}{d}$ ......$(i)$
$C' = \frac{{{\varepsilon _0}KA}}{{2d}}$ ......$(ii)$
From equation $(i)$ and $(ii)$ $\frac{{C'}}{C} = \frac{K}{2}$ $==>$ $2 = \frac{K}{2}\,\, \Rightarrow K = 4$

The capacities of two conductors are ${C_1}$ and ${C_2}$ and their respective potentials are ${V_1}$ and${V_2}$. If they are connected by a thin wire, then the loss of energy will be given by
$0.2\, F$ capacitor is charged to $600\, V$ by a battery. On removing the battery. It is connected with another parallel plate condenser of $1\, F$. The potential decreases to....$V$
A conducting body $1$ has some initial charge $Q$, and its capacitance is $C$. There are two other conducting bodies, $2$ and $3$, having capacitances : $C_2 = 2C$ and $C_3 \rightarrow \infty$ . Bodies $2 $ and $3 $ are initially uncharged. "Body $2$ is touched with body $1$. Then, body $2$ is removed from body $1 $ and touched with body $3$, and then removed." This process is repeated $N$ times. Then, the charge on body $1$ at the end must be
The material filled between the plates of a parallel plate capacitor has resistivity $200 \Omega \, {m}$. The value of capacitance of the capacitor is $2\, {pF}$. If a potential difference of $40 \,{V}$ is applied across the plates of the capacitor, then the value of leakage current flowing out of the capacitor is

An electric dipole of moment $p$ is placed in an electric field of intensity $E.$ The dipole acquires a position such that the axis of the dipole makes an angle $\theta$ with the direction of the field. Assuming that the potential energy of the dipole to be zero when $\theta = 90^o$ , the torque and the potential energy of the dipole will respectively be
Positive and negative point charges of equal magnitude are kept at $\left(0,0, \frac{a}{2}\right)$ and $\left(0,0, \frac{-a}{2}\right)$, respectively. The work done by the electric field when another positive point charge is moved from $(-a, 0,0)$ to $(0, a, 0)$ is
Two isolated conducting spheres $S_{1}$ and $S_{2}$ of radius $\frac{2}{3} R$ and $\frac{1}{3} R$ have $12\, \mu C$ and $-3\, \mu C$ charges, respectively, and are at a large distance from each other. They are now onnected by a conducting wire. A long time after this is done the charges on $S_{1}$ and $S_{2}$ are respectively
Three identical capacitors are given a charge $Q$ each and they are then allowed to discharge through resistance $R_1, R_2\,$ and $\,R_3$. Their charges, as a function of time shown in the graph below. The smallest of the three resistance is
