A parallel plate capacitor is filled equally (half) with two dielectrics of
dielectric constant 
and 
, as shown in figures. The distance between the plates is d and area of each plate is A . If capacitance in first configuration and second configuration are 
and 
respectively, then 
is:
A
B
C
D
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
B
Area of plate is A. then
Let 
C & C' are in series
Here 
C & C' are inparallel
Thus
