NEET Physics (general) MCQ Question
Type: MCQ-diagram based-Medium-Class 12
Consider a capacitor with a dielectric inserted between its plates. If a dielectric of thickness 3 mm and dielectric constant 6 is inserted while the voltage supply remains connected, what happens to the capacitance?
A
Capacitance increases.
B
Capacitance decreases.
C
Capacitance remains unchanged.
D
Capacitance becomes zero.
Correct Answer
Option A
Detailed Explanation
Inserting a dielectric material between the plates of a capacitor while the voltage supply is connected increases the capacitance due to the dielectric's ability to store more charge.
