A capacitor is fully charged with a battery and then disconnected. A dielectric is then inserted into the capacitor. How do charges on surface of the dielectric and outer surface of the plates of the capacitor would change respectively?
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
C
When a dielectric is introduced in between plates it gets polarized as shown.
Due to this, charges at surface of dielectric gets increased:
Since, there is no external power source.
Hence, charges remains unchanged.
