What will be the capacity of a parallel-plate capacitor when the half of parallel space between the plates is filled by a material of dielectric constant ${\varepsilon _r}$ ? Assume that the capacity of the capacitor in air is $C$
  • A$\frac{{2{\varepsilon _r}C}}{{1 + {\varepsilon _r}}}$
  • B$\frac{{C({\varepsilon _r} + 1)}}{2}$
  • C$\frac{{{\varepsilon _r}C}}{{1 + {\varepsilon _r}}}$
  • D${\varepsilon _r}C$
