A parallel-plate capacitor is constructed by filling the space between two square plates with a block of three dielectric materials, as shown in the figure below. You may assume that ℓ ≫ d. A parallel-plate capacitor is comprised of two square plates with sides of length ℓ and separation distance d. There are three dielectric materials in the space between the capacitor plates. A material with length ℓ⁄2, height d, and dielectric constant ?1 fills the left half of the space. A material with length ℓ⁄2, height d⁄2, and dielectric constant ?2 fills the top right quarter of the space. A material with length ℓ⁄2, height d⁄2, and dielectric constant ?3 fills the bottom right quarter of the space.

A capacitor is attached to a battery. It has initial capacitance Co, voltage Vo, charge Qo, and energy Uo. Let's put some dielectric material of dielectric constant K in there in two different ways. For each case, figure out the following for the resulting "new" capacitor: C, V, Q, and U, in terms of the old value and K. The capacitor is left attached to the battery. A slab of dielectric material with K=3 is inserted into the capacitor without otherwise disturbing it. In terms of the initial values, what are the new values? The capacitor is disconnected from the battery after it is charged up to Qo. Then, a slab of dielectric material with K=3 is inserted into the capacitor without anybody touching the plates or otherwise disturbing the capacitor. In terms of the initial values, what are the new values?
In the diagram, an isolated charged parallel-plate capacitor holding charge Q isarranged horizontally, with one plate flush with a frictionless surface. The capacitor hascapacitance Co when there is no dielectric inserted. The dielectric block (mass m, dielectricconstant k) inside the capacitor is attached to a hanging block (mass M) by a massless stringrouted over a frictionless pulley.

The blocks are initially at rest and the dielectric is initially completely inside thecapacitor.
