STATEMENT-1: A parallel plate capacitor is charged by a `d.c.` source supplying a constant voltage `V`. If the plates are kept connected to the source and the space between the plates is filled with a dielectric, the charge on the plates will increases. STATEMENT-2: Additional charge will flow from teh source to the plates.A. Statement -1 si Ture, Statement -2 is True, Statement -2 is a correct explanation for Statement -1.B. Statement-1 is True, Statement-2 is True, Statement-2 is Not a correct explanation for Statement-1.C. Statement-1 is True, Statement-2 is False.D. Statement-1 is False, Statement-2 is True.

Answer» Correct Answer - A
The correct choice is `(A)`. Since the source supplies a contant voltage `V`. The potential difference between the plates remains equal to `V` because the source is not disconnected. The capacitance `C` increases due to the introduction of the dielectric. since `Q = CV`, the charge `q` on the capacitor plates will increase.
