Two capacitors $C$ and $2C$ are connected in parallel and charged to a potential $V$ by a battery. The battery is then removed. The capacitor $C$ is filled with a dielectric of constant $K$. What is the new potential difference across the capacitors?

  • A
    $\frac{V}{K + 2}$
  • B
    $2 + \frac{K}{3V}$
  • C
    $\frac{2V}{K + 2}$
  • D
