Question

A parallel capacitor of capacitance C has spacing d between two plates having area A. The region between the plates is filled with N dielectric layers parallel to the plate, each having thickness (d/N). The dielectric constant of the mth layer is Km = K(1+m/N). For very large value of N(N>1000), find the value of the capacitance of the conductor.
