Question

A parallel plate capacitor is filled equally (half) with two dielectrics of dielectric constant $$\epsilon_1$$ and $$\epsilon_2$$, 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 $$C_1$$ and $$C_2$$ respectively, then $$\frac{C_1}{C_2}$$ is:

Accepted Answer

B. $$\frac{4\epsilon_1 \epsilon_2}{(\epsilon_1 + \epsilon_2)^2}$$

Answer

A. $$\frac{\epsilon_1 \epsilon_2}{(\epsilon_1 + \epsilon_2)^2}$$

Answer

C. $$\frac{\epsilon_1 \epsilon_2}{\epsilon_1 + \epsilon_2}$$

Answer

D. $$\frac{\epsilon_0 (\epsilon_1 + \epsilon_2)}{2}$$
