The capacitor of an oscillatory circuit is enclosed in a container. When the container is evacuated, the resonance frequency of the circuit is $10 \mathrm{kHz}$. When the container is filled with a gas, the resonance frequency changes by $50 \mathrm{~Hz}$. The dielectric constant of the gas is
  1. $1.001$
  2. $2.001$
  3. $1.01$
  4. $3.01$

Solution

The dielectric constant of the gas is $1.01$
