MCQ

A capacitor is charged by using a battery which is then disconnected. A dielectric slab is then slipped between the plates, which results in

A
Reduction of charge on the plates and increase of potential difference across the plates
B
Increase in the potential difference across the plate, reduction in stored energy, but no change in the charge on the plates
✓
Decrease in the potential difference across the plates, reduction in the stored energy, but no change in the charge on the plates
D
None of the above

✓

Answer

Correct option: C.

Decrease in the potential difference across the plates, reduction in the stored energy, but no change in the charge on the plates

Decrease in the potential difference across the plates, reduction in the stored energy, but no change in the charge on the plates

$A$ turnip sits before a thin converging lens, outside the focal point of the lens. The lens is filled with a transparent gel so that it is flexible; by squeezing its ends toward its center [as indicated in figure $(a)$], you can change the curvature of its front and rear sides. Suppose that the image must be formed on a card which is at a certain distance behind the lens [figure $(b)$], while you move the turnip away from the lens, then you should
