Two point charges placed at a distance of 0.20m in air repel each other with a certain force. When a dielectric slab of thickness 0.08m is introduced in between the charges, the force of interaction is half of its previous value. Find the dielectric constant.

Answer»

Solution :r= 0.2m, x= 0.08m
`F= (1)/(4PI in_(0)) (q_(1)q_(2))/((0.2)^(2))` …….in air
`F^(1)= (1)/(4pi in_(0))(q_(1)q_(2))/([(0.2-0.08) + 0.08 sqrtK]^(2)) " Here " F^(1)= (1)/(2)F`
SUBSTITUTING we get `K ~= 4`
