$A$ parallel plate capacitor having capacitance $C$ farad is connected to a battery of emf $V$ volt. Keeping the capacitor connected to the battery,a dielectric slab of dielectric constant $K$ is inserted between the plates. The dimensions of the slab are such that it fills the whole space between the capacitor plates. Then $:-$

  • A
    charge on the capacitor plates remains the same
  • B
    charge on the plates becomes $K$ times
  • C
    potential difference between the plates decreases to $V/K$
  • D
    all of the above

Two point charges are kept in air with a separation $r$ between them. The force between them is $F_1$. If half of the space between the charges is filled with a dielectric of dielectric constant $K=4$,the force between them becomes $F_2$. If $1/3$ rd of the space between the charges is filled with a dielectric of dielectric constant $K=9$,then the ratio $F_1/F_2$ is:
