Question

An uncharged parallel plate capacitor is connected to a battery. The electric field between the plates is 10 V/m. Now a dielectric of dielectric constant 2 is inserted between the plates filling the entire space. The electric field (in V/m) between the plates now is

Solution

Since the capacitor is connected to the battery, potential difference across the capacitor will remain same.
Electric field between plates ,
E=Vd
Where, V= potential difference and d is the perpendicular distance between the plates.
Thus, the electric field will remain unchanged.
