Complete Question
A parallel-plate capacitor, with air dielectric, is charged by a battery, after which the battery is disconnected. A slab of glass dielectric is then slowly inserted between the plates. As it is being inserted,
A :
a force repels the glass out of the capacitor.
B :
a force attracts the glass into the capacitor.
C :
no force acts on the glass.
D :
a net charge appears on the glass.
E :
the glass makes the plates repel each other.
Answer:
The correct option is B
Explanation:
Generally when the glass dielectric is slowly inserted between the plated,
The positive plate of the capacitor will induce a negative charge on the glass while the negative plate of the capacitor will induce a positive charge on glass which a electric field that posses an electric force that will attract the glass
