Capacitance of Parallel Plate with a Dielectric Slab

 

Capacitance of Parallel Plate with a Dielectric Slab

 

When a dielectric slab t

due to polarisation). So,

V = E0(d - t) + Et

 

Capacitance of Parallel Plate with a Dielectric Slab

 

Clearly: C>Co

This is expected because introduction of dielectric slab reduces the electric field and hence potential difference between the plates. Since, charge on capacitor plates is same, capacitance increases.
