$A$ parallel plate capacitor has two layers of dielectrics as shown in the figure. This capacitor is connected across a battery. The ratio of the potential difference across the dielectric layers $(V_1/V_2)$ is:

The capacitance of a capacitor becomes $\frac{7}{6}$ times the original value if a dielectric slab of thickness $t = \frac{2d}{3}$ is introduced between the plates, where $d$ is the distance of separation between the plates. The dielectric constant of the slab is
