Assertion : If the distance between parallel plates of a capacitor is halved and the dielectric constant is increased to three times its original value,then the capacitance becomes $6$ times.
Reason : The capacity of a capacitor does not depend upon the nature of the material between the plates.

$A$ parallel plate capacitor has plates with area $A$ and separation $d$. $A$ battery charges the plates to a potential difference $V_0$. The battery is then disconnected and a dielectric slab of thickness $d$ is introduced. The ratio of energy stored in the capacitor before and after the slab is introduced,is

If a slab of insulating material $4 \times 10^{-3} \ m$ thick is introduced between the plates of a parallel plate capacitor,the separation between the plates has to be increased by $3.5 \times 10^{-3} \ m$ to restore the capacity to its original value. The dielectric constant of the material will be:
