The energy and capacity of a charged parallel plate capacitor are $U$ and $C$ respectively. Now a dielectric slab of dielectric constant $K = 6$ is inserted in it. Then,the new energy and capacity become (Assume the charge on the plates remains constant).

  • A
    $6U, 6C$
  • B
    $U, C$
  • C
    $\frac{U}{6}, 6C$
  • D
