The capacitance of an air-filled parallel-plate capacitor is 60 pF. When a dielectric slab
whose thickness is half the distance between the plates, is placed on one of the plates
covering it entirely, the capacitance becomes 86 pF. Neglecting the fringing effects, the
relative permittivity of the dielectric is _____________ (up to 2 decimal places).

A phase controlled single phase rectifier, supplied by an AC source, feeds power to an
R-L-E load as shown in the figure. The rectifier output voltage has an average value given
by $${V_0} = {{{V_m}} \over {2\pi }}\left( {3 + \cos \alpha } \right)$$, where $${V_m} = 80\pi $$ volts and $$\alpha $$ is the firing angle. If the power
delivered to the lossless battery is 1600 W, $$\alpha $$ in degree is________ (up to 2 decimal
places).
